Toshiba goes straight on chip design
News The X architecture changes the way a chip's interconnects -- metal wires that connect transistors and carry signals -- are routed. X architecture allows the interconnects to be routed diagonally across the chip in any of eight directions, instead...

Intel gets optical with fibre
News The effort is largely aimed at dodging some of the problems looming with metal interconnects and buses. Both Intel and Primarion started examining optical interconnects a few years ago. It's going to take a number of years, but optical fibre is...

InfiniBand reborn for supercomputing
News I don't see how those smaller niche interconnects can prevail. The high-performance computing interconnects these days are really a hodgepodge of proprietary interconnects that all do basically the same thing," said Illuminata analyst Gordon Haff.

Breaking out of walled gardens: The promise of ethernet interconnection
White Papers With Eth ernet interconnects, operators can break out of the walled gardens that limit their reach and address many more business customers. Ethernet Network-to-Network Interconnects (E-NNIs) are very close to being agreed as a technical standard...

Does Moore's Law no longer apply?
News IBM is utilising copper interconnects, for example, on its PowerPC processors. For example, copper interconnects are more power-efficient conductors than the aluminum interconnects currently in wide use, meaning a chip will take less power and run...
