Intel to expand its R&D activities in Germany
World’s largest maker of microprocessors for the personal computing platform Intel is expanding its R&D activities in Germany. They have now opened up a new &D center at its lab in Braunschweig. And they would be focusing on developing multi-core processor technologies at this lab.
This would see them changing their focus from developing chips for optical networks to developing “many-core” chips with hundreds of processing cores at this particular research center.
This initiative is part of their Tera-Scale Computing Research program, which is aimed to deliver processors with tens to hundreds of cores for computing performance in the teraflops range in the coming years.
Intel’s new lab would also be focusing on creating software and research on platform development models for potential future products.
