The Father of Multi-Core Chips Talks Shop

Posted by timothy on from the green-onion-layered-beneath-yogurt dept.

pacopico writes "Stanford professor Kunle Olukotun designed the first mainstream multi-core chip, crafting what would become Sun Microsystems's Niagra product. Now, he's heading up Stanford's Pervasive Parallelism Lab where researchers are looking at 100s of core systems that might power robots, 3-D virtual worlds and insanely big server applications. The Register just interviewed Olukotun about this work and the future of multi-core chips. Weird and interesting stuff."

    Fuck you and all your ignorant "yes-man" kind

    Thank you but why be anonymous? There is nothing to fear. Censorship on Slashdot by the usual Turing machine worshipers and other ass kissers is nothing new but that will not stop progress. The best is yet to come.
