Did you even other to read the article? It's IBM fab, but UC Davis research.... unless I'm completely wrong.. Without real details like the ISA (which I assume is some common RISC-like thing) who knows how useful it could ever be outside of testing how many "cores" can be stuffed on a single chip.. I'm curious how much the chip-to-chip "networking" consumes compared to the cores themselves, as well as how the hell you'd try to program that for any level of high utilization.. dum-dee-doh..
