Single-chip Cloud Computer (Intel 48-Core x86 Processor)

Intel unveiled a new processor design. 'Single-chip Cloud Computer' is the nickname. This new CPU is the first to integrate full IA x86 cores rather than simple floating point units. The 48 cores are set 2 to a 'tile' and each tile communicates with others via a 2D mesh network capable of 256 GB/s rather than a large cache structure.
