一、IA—64—成为企业计算的转折点 从台式机到超级计算机,当今所有主流体系结构都必须提供越来越高的性能,具体的实现方法一直离不开两个方面:更高的时钟速度和更多的指令并行。但对于处理器芯片业说,越来越复杂性达到一定程度以后,性能的提高将会遇到天花板——无法以足够经济的方式实现产业化。 1994年,惠普和Intel达成协议,共同开发新的65 I. IA-64—A turning point in enterprise computing From desktops to supercomputers, all mainstream architectures today must provide higher and higher performance. The specific implementation method has always been inseparable from two aspects: higher clock speeds. And more instructions in parallel. However, for the processor chip industry, after increasing complexity to a certain extent, the performance improvement will meet the ceiling - it cannot be industrialized in a sufficiently economical way. In 1994, Hewlett-Packard and Intel reached an agreement to jointly develop a new 65
