100-Core Processor on Tap
,----[ Quote ]
| But all those cores won't do much good
| without applications to exercise them,
| right? So Tilera also offers Multicore
| Development Environment, a simplified multi-
| core Eclipse-based IDE that can target SMP
| Linux 2.6, Zero Overhead Linux, Bare Metal
| Environment and hybrid systems. The package
| includes an ANSI C/C++ compiler, system
| simulator, GNU command line tools and
| graphical multi-core application debugging
| and profiling.

New company promises 100 core CPUs by next year
,----[ Quote ]
| Perhaps a Linux distribution (Ubuntu?) will
| at least get some code for the new CPUs. If
| the chips are as powerful as Tilera is
| promising, they should be able to handle
| anything Linux could throw at them. They
| would serve well for a server of some sort,
| or an ultra-powerful Linux desktop as of
| right now. If nothing else, hopefully this
| will push Intel into getting their 80-core
| prototype CPU out as soon as possible.

Tilera pushes to 100 cores with mesh processor
,----[ Quote ]
| Upstart massively multicore chip designer
| Tilera has divulged the details on its
| upcoming third generation of Tile processors,
| which will sport from 16 to 100 cores on a
| single die.

| There are a lot of differences between the
| Tile family of chips and these graphics
| processors, but the key one is that the Tile
| multicore processors run Linux directly
| (albeit a homegrown one) and are being
| designed not just for digital signal and
| networking processing, but to run that
| standard LAMP stack - Linux, Apache, MySQL,
| and PHP.

Linux-ready networking SoCs scale to 40 cores
,----[ Quote ]
| Netronome announced new multi-core "network flow processors" that are
| backward-compatible with Intel's IXP28xx, but claimed to offer over twice the
| MIPS. The Linux-compatible NFP-32xx system-on-chips scale from 16 to 40
| cores, offer 20Gbps throughput, and provide a programmable dataplane,
| virtualization, and security processing, says the company.
