It's ironic that while Tilera's own website points out their heritage from MIT's RAW project, these external magazine articles generally don't even mention it. For actual understanding of the technology it'd probably be more useful to point to and briefly summarize the extensive and well-written MIT research papers, and then explain what the company has actually changed since the academic work, and since Tilera was last in the news with product announcements two years ago (c. Oct. 2007). Btw, is anyone commercializing the (related technology) TRIPS Polymorphic Processor (EDGE architecture) work from the University of Texas? It sounded even more interesting and useful than RAW, but (not being a chip guy at all myself) I had no idea whether that was just hot air or not. http://groups.csail.mit.edu/cag/raw/ http://www.cs.utexas.edu/~trips/ http://www.beowulf.org/archive/2007-February/017414.html http://www.beowulf.org/pipermail/beowulf/2007-October/019617.html http://www.beowulf.org/pipermail/beowulf/2007-October/019621.html http://www.beowulf.org/pipermail/beowulf/2007-October/019677.html -- Andrew Piskorski <a...@piskorski.com> http://www.piskorski.com/ _______________________________________________ Beowulf mailing list, Beowulf@beowulf.org sponsored by Penguin Computing To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf
