SAN JOSE, Calif. – Samsung will describe the first mobile applications processor to use ARM’s big.little concept at the International Solid-State Circuits Conference in February.
That's one of only a few major new microprocessor disclosures at the semiconductor industry's premier conference where Intel’s Haswell and Nvidia’s Project Denver parts are noticeably absent. However, both Intel and Nvidia will deliver papers on new chip-to-chip links that may provide an oblique view on their future processor plans.
