The prototype for a revolutionary new general-purpose computer processor, which has the potential of reaching trillions of calculations per second, has been designed and built by a team of computer scientists at The University of Texas at Austin.
The new processor, known as TRIPS (Tera-op, Reliable, Intelligently adaptive Processing System), could be used to accelerate industrial, consumer and scientific computing

Tech Coordinator, are they turning the compusa in madison heights into a frys?, the one south of 14 mile, not the one they are closing now. I heard it from a guy at my work.

As long as the revolutionary chip hasn't been developed by Cyberdyne Systems Corporation, I'm okay with it :D

And if it won't run x86 code as well as today's machines it's probably already doomed to failure, except for niche markets.

Uh, it IS dual-core. It is a dual-core, 16-issue (per core) processor.

I wonder how these guys will interface with the rest of the computer. With that much bandwidth, I'd have to expect a 16-lane PCIe at the minimum, maybe it'll slave off the HT bus or even sit in its own socket. This would be a good candidate for filling a socket in a Torrenze/Geneseo system.

I went to UT and took a class from this guy (Dr Berger). I work for Intel now, and I always remember him raving about how bad Itanium is. He said it is what happens when you "lock up a bunch of CS and EE people into a room, and throw away the key." This was back in 2001, and TRIPS wasn't even new then.

I haven't talked to him in a while, and I wonder what he thought of Intel's 80-"core", tera-scale CPU.

C’est magnifique, mais ce n’est pas la guerre.
