Intel Itanium Poulson Featured at 2011 Hot Chips Conference

by cjdreher on 08-16-2011 04:53 PM - last edited on 08-22-2011 10:45 PM

The annual Hot Chips conference is happening this week on the Stanford University campus in Silicon Valley, California and Intel's Itanium chip, incorporated into our HP Integrity family of mission-critical servers is one of the hot topics on the agenda. Readers of this HP Mission-Critical Musings blog know that the investment in Itanium remains strong.  The roadmap of innovation and high performance continues with new generations of Itanium coming forth - first Poulson, then Kittson.  Poulson will be discussed by Stephen Undy of Intel at the conference this year - morning of Friday August 19th.

 

For over 20 years now, Hot Chips has been known as one of the semiconductor industry's leading conferences on high-performance microprocessors and related integrated circuits. Organizers emphasize that the focus of the conference this year, as in previous years, is on real products and realizable technology.

 

In addition to learning more about the workings of the Itanium Poulson chip, some of the key items covered this year include embedded and reconfigurable processors, quantum computing, nano structures, wireless chips, network/security processors, advanced packaging technology and more.

 

To get more information on the conference please visit www.hotchips.org and check out the agenda.  It's not too late to register and go - they will accept on site registration as of time of this posting.  They also have a twitter account: http://twitter.com/#!/hotchipsorg to follow this week.

 

We'll be back on this blog with an update on Poulson after the conference. 

 

UPDATE: Intel's Pauline Nist posted a blog called "Itanium Poulson Update - Greater Parallelism, New Instruction Replay & More: Catch the details from ...!".  Also available is Intel's Itanium Hotchips Presentation on slideshare.
