- Is AMD's 65nm SOI process broken?
- Is AMD's 65nm SOI process broken?As soon as I read the headline...I knew it had to be George.Your bashing has become boring.Seems to be..and after all the SOI hubbub, too!Good topic. AMD made a huge stink about it's incredible and innovative SOI process a few years ago. That along...

- Building an Infrastructure to Enable a Service-Oriented Architecture
- SOI is a response to the operational complexity, poor efficiency, and inefficient provisioning models of deploying multiple disparate n-tier infrastructures. The current fractured data center infrastructure model results in the typical Fortune 500 Company spending more than half of its IT budget on data centers. Costs of data center operations...

- Is AMD's 65nm SOI process broken?
- Since news first broke that AMD's Barcelona will be six months late confirmed by AMD CEO and six hundred megahertz short on clock speed, the microprocessor community began to wonder aloud whether AMD's 65nm SOI Silicon On Insulator process is fundamentally broken. The fact that there are absolutely zero production...

- Optimizing chip manufacturing at MIT
- According to MIT researchers, computer chips used inside high-speed communication devices have become so small that tiny variations that appear during chip fabrication can make a big difference in performance.' So they've developed a model to predict variation in circuit performance and maximize the number of chips working within the...

- Optimization of Silicon Technology for the IBM System z9
- IBM 90-nm Silicon-On-Insulator SOI technology was used for the key chips in the System z9 processor chipset. Along with system design, optimization of some critical features of this technology enabled the z9 to achieve double the system performance of the previous generation. These technology improvements included logic and SRAM FET...

- Is SOA decentralization the "kiss of death"?
- Is SOA decentralization the "kiss of death"?The kiss of deathSOA in general is the kiss of death for IBM and M$. Driving people into proprietary, centralized environments is in IBM and M$ best interests - so OF COURSE they would poo-poo decentrailzation. Its harder to do, and can be done...

- Is SOA decentralization the "kiss of death"?
- Some people never tire of pointing out that SOA is nothing new -- merely old wine in new bottles. Fair enough. Even Michael Liebow, vice president of Web Services and SOA at IBM Global Services, would agree. As he puts it in a recent interview in Network World, "It's safe...

- Maybe now, Intel's Centrino will offer a technical advantage
- Maybe now, Intel's Centrino will offer a technical advantageDid someone say "steamroller"?Thought you did! ;)It's the noise, stupidThe challenge is to do the RF processing in standard CMOS. CMOS is noisy and not terribly good at RF, so up until now the RF section was handled in another chip....

- AMD gains market share, but so does IntelAMD window of opportunity is closing - fastThey launched 64bits about 2 years ago now and their hype of consumer running 64bit apps all have been a dismal failure. Their current share is actually down sunstantially from their peak.The good news for AMD...

- AMD sneaks strained silicon into chips
- AMD sneaks strained silicon into chipsI Love it...AMD comes up with a superior product and numerous improved technological processes and the title of this story implies that they are doing something "sneaky" as in dishonest. No, they are applying better engineering than Intel or IBM and as a result AMD...
