Tomorrow's Platform: Multicore, SoCs and IP
9/7/2006
After a long career of providing more computing through higher frequency and greater density, the microprocessor is headed for a retirement of sorts.
But far from the traditional retirement, the microprocessor’s new role will be more of a career change, as the device continues its work but becomes part of a larger team. That was the message from Grant Pierce, Sonics president and CEO, in a keynote address offered during the Semico Research Forecast event in San Jose Wednesday.
