The term supercomputer does get tossed around a lot, but what does it actually mean? What does a computer need to do to be considered super?

Leading AI systems designs are migrating away from building the fastest AI processor possible, adopting a more balanced approach that involves highly specialized, heterogeneous compute elements, ...

Every processor ever built contains an underlying “architecture,” representing deep-seated characteristics that transcend any single CPU core or physical design. This architecture defines how a ...

Discussions about CPUs often frame one instruction set architecture (ISA) against another—x86 vs. Arm, Arm vs. RISC-V, and so on. However, it’s common to use multiple CPU architectures in a single ...

For Alder Lake, Intel is relying on what it says are two new groundbreaking x86 CPU microarchitectures — an Efficiency core and a Performance core — and it will use an intelligent scheduler to tell ...

With the launch of the 4 th generation of Intel Xeon Scalable processors and the Xeon CPU Max series, which were codenamed Sapphire Rapids, Intel is charting a new server architecture path for the ...

With its blend of open-source freedoms with the benefits of standardization, the RISC-V (risk-five) Foundation is attracting widespread industry interest. Its core specifications are stable and on the ...
