The significance of Intel’s Core i7 to Embedded Computing
At the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) on January 7, 2010, Intel® announced 27 new processors in its Core® i3, Core® i5 and Core® i7 families. Significantly for the embedded industry, twelve of these were targeted specifically at embedded applications.
Software Defined Radio Handbook
SDR (Software Defined Radio) has revolutionized electronic systems for a variety of applications including communications, data acquisition and signal processing. This handbook shows how DDCs (Digital Downconverters) and DUCs (Digital Upconverters), the fundamental building blocks of SDR, can replace conventional analog receiver designs, offering significant benefits in performance, density and cost.
Whitepaper on Stride and Prefetch feature in ISA 2.06
POWER stands for Performance Optimization with Enhanced RISC. Power architecture is synonymous with performance. Introduced by IBM in 1991, POWER1 was a superscalar design that implemented register renaming andout-of-order execution.
What is New in the Server Environment of Power ISA v2.06?
The Power ISA evolved out of IBM’s POWER and later PowerPC architectures. The first version of the Power ISA – v2.03, taken largely from PowerPC v2.02 and PowerPC Book E v1.9, was released in 2006.
Cell Processor Technical Specifications
The Cell/B.E.™ resource center is a good starting point for developers looking for information about IBM Cell/B.E. technology-based software.
Enabling Interoperability in High-Per formance Embedded Applications - An OpenVPX System Specification Primer
With the advent of high-speed serial fabrics, the VME Parallel Bus proved insufficient for the needs of higherperformance embedded systems. VPX, also known as VITA 46, is the follow-on to the VME Specification for the next generation of high-speed interconnects for harsh environments.
MontaVista Linux Carrier Grade Edition
Communications networks are very different from other kinds of computing applications. Networks require both very high reliability and very high performance. Not only must they process large volumes of data at high speed, but they must do so while limiting their downtime to minutes per year.
