Just as a falling apple spurred Isaac Newton's discovery of gravity, toppling dominoes have inspired researchers to build the world's smallest computer circuits.
Researchers at the University of Michigan have designed chips that use 30,000 times less power in sleep mode and 10 per cent less in active mode than comparable processors, putting an end to overweight battery syndrome.
Intel has turned the clock back several years in terms of chip architecture to reduce power in the upcoming Silverthorne mobile chip.
Intel has set a high level of expectation for its next-generation Nehalem processor, if Tuesday's demonstration at the Intel Developer Forum was anything to go by.
Intel has announced that "Atom" will be the name given to its new family of low-powered processors designed for ultra mobile PCs and Mobile Internet Devices (MIDs).
A look at how Intel chips have evolved -- from the revolutionary 4004 to the teraflop-ready 80-core prototype of tomorrow.
Intel's next Itanium processor likely will run at 1.5GHz, a 50 percent increase from its predecessor and an indication the company is getting better at meeting development goals for its high-end chip family.
Hewlett-Packard is champing at the bit to release a new version of its ProLiant ML570 server that will use Intel's upcoming "Gallatin" Xeon processor.
Processor powerhouses IBM and Intel are set to reveal their plans to use the 'strained silicon' technique to build faster, power-efficient chips--and maybe break free of Moore's Law.
Marvel at the machine that pioneered the person computer revolution; the Commodore 64. In this photo gallery we reveal the guts that gave the Commodore 64 its glory, why not nose in for some nostalgia?
Just as a falling apple spurred Isaac Newton's discovery of gravity, toppling dominoes have inspired researchers to build the world's smallest computer circuits.
Researchers at Stanford and UC Berkeley have come up with a way to grow carbon nanotubes on silicon wafers and to test the nanotubes, which could help pave the way for carbon chips.
Intel's next Itanium processor likely will run at 1.5GHz, a 50 percent increase from its predecessor and an indication the company is getting better at meeting development goals for its high-end chip family.
Motherboard makers are gearing up to support Intel's upcoming 3GHz Pentium 4, and the cost of their upgraded parts could mean a price hike for PC buyers.
Processors are now called upon to handle everything from simple text and graphics, through 3D games, to serious tasks like video rendering. We put Intel and AMD's desktop CPUs through the labs to see how they cope.
