KiloCore the first processor with 1000 cores

KiloCore; If you have to stop being interested in hardware changes on today's personal gadgets, you probably will not be able to overlook the following news.

Perhaps it seems to you that the latter does not matter so much καθώς όλα τα νέα hardware είναι υψηλής τεχνολογίας. Αν όμως δουλεύετε σε πολύπλοκα projects όπως η κρυπτογράφηση, θα χρειαστείτε όλη τη δύναμη από τους π system you can get your hands on.kilocore chip

Αυτός είναι ο λόγος για τον οποίο μια ομάδα ερευνητών στο University of Davis designed a microchip with 1.000 processors that can each operate independently. It's called KiloCore.

The chip is able to process 1780000000000 commands per second, which makes the team believe that they created the highest clock-rate processor ever designed at a university. IBM had built one using an older 32nm CMOS than the one using modern UC chips.

Because each processor can run alone and stop when it is not in use, KiloCore can use the power so efficiently it can be powered by an AA battery. UC researchers report that their chip runs orders over 100 times more efficiently than a modern laptop processor.

Where can 1.000 cores be used anyway? Think about video editing, encryption functions, and scientific data handling. No, you can not borrow it to play DOOM on 4K.
