I remember way back hearing the IB was going to be the technology to replace all those various buses (PCI, etc) on a motherboard [1], then it all went quiet and then it re-emerged as an interconnect. So perhaps Intel (who were part of one of the two groups that merged to create IB) have thoughts again on this? cheers, Chris [1] interestingly a similar comment appears on the IB Wikipedia page under history, but sadly without references.. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/InfiniBand#History - -- Christopher Samuel - Senior Systems Administrator VLSCI - Victorian Life Sciences Computation Initiative Email: sam...@unimelb.edu.au Phone: +61 (0)3 903 55545 http://www.vlsci.unimelb.edu.au/ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk8d5nIACgkQO2KABBYQAh+rcACgjTSmbr9EC4clrh0J2EQUT8lX Sz0AniUG4pdhBkliNWGq5E1tsXiOa8IV =0k6Z -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ 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
