Intel IT’s Data Center Strategy

March 12th, 2010

Intel IT’s Data Center Strategy is on track to create $650M of value for Intel’s business. They’ve realized over 30% of this already, with server refresh and data center virtualization driving a large portion of the value. Hear about how Intel has shifted their strategy away from strictly consolidating data centers to a strategy that focuses on leveraging the full potential of their data centers worldwide.

Single-chip Cloud Computer – Microsoft Visual Studio + SCC Message Passing Environment

December 3rd, 2009

In this demo with Jonathan Ross, Software Architect, Microsoft:

Bringing parallel programming to mainstream software developers is one of the main goals of Intel’s Tera-scale research program. Microsoft Visual Studio is a widely popular software development environment that can also be used for developing parallel applications to run on the SCC many-core platform.

  • Visual Studio 2008 is demonstrated working together with Intel’s research SCC message passing environment.
  • This allows programmers to directly take advantage of the cloud-like message passing architecture of SCC.
  • Proves how easy it is for a programmer to setup a project, edit, compile and run applications that take advantage of the unique features of the experimental SCC.

This podcast is from the live webcast at the Clift Hotel in San Francisco on December 2, 2009. This demo followed Intel CTO, Justin Rattner’s opening remarks on the Single-Chip Cloud Computer, the latest Intel Labs milestone in the Intel Tera-scale Computing Research Program.

Single-chip Cloud Computer – Energy Efficiency with Real-Time Advanced Power Management

December 3rd, 2009

In this demo with Rob F. Van der Wijngaart, Senior Software Engineer, Intel:

The experimental chip was designed to operate from as high as 125W to as low as 25W by providing a variety of advanced capabilities to manage power consumption. Power use is largely determined by the cores’ clock speeds and operating voltages. The chip has a unique ability to mix and match voltages and clock speeds for the different cores, or even to turn off entire regions of the chip when not needed. These capabilities can be controlled by software, allowing the application or operating system to intelligently manage power consumption, adapting in real time to use only the energy that is really needed. The demonstration displays how power levels for different sections of the chip change in response to the needs of a series of tasks whose power requirements vary over time.  The tasks of the application are modeled after parallel computations.

Single-chip Cloud Computer – Programming for the 3D Internet: JavaScript Farm on a Chip

December 3rd, 2009

In this demo with Adam Welc, Ph.D., Senior Research Scientist, Intel:

As Justin Rattner emphasized in his Supercomputing 2009 keynote in November, the Internet is poised to transition from flat, 2D experiences to more immersive 3D experiences. Bringing real world physics to 3D graphics is essential to making these emerging online interactions true-to-life. For instance, realistic, physics-based cloth modeling could enable both virtual clothing design as well as virtual dressing rooms that allow you to “try out” clothes on your virtual body and see how they would actually fall on you and match your specific skin tone. Intel Labs have demonstrated JavaScript, the language used broadly to create interactive web pages, taken to new levels of capability. Although JavaScript is used in every browser, it’s mainly used to operate very simple tasks like processing web forms and has performance problems running more complicated activities. JavaScript has been underutilized until now due to the lack of programming environment. Intel Labs have worked on a programming model that allows better utilization, takes better advantage of newer and future high-core count processors, and can be immediately deployed without requiring any modifications to the underlying infrastructure.

  • By treating the prototype chip as a “server farm” the chip is able to divide the work involved in calculating the motion of interactive cloth.
  •    

  • Researchers use the “Actor” model, commonly used in server farms, which treats each core as an independent worker to own and process one piece of the cloth.
  •    

  • Leveraging the standard HTTP web protocol, the browser distributes pieces of the cloth across the actor server farm, allows them to calculate the location of their piece of the cloth at the next time step, collects the results, and displays the combined image.

This podcast is from the live webcast at the Clift Hotel in San Francisco on December 2, 2009. This demo followed Intel CTO, Justin Rattner’s opening remarks on the Single-Chip Cloud Computer, the latest Intel Labs milestone in the Intel Tera-scale Computing Research Program.

Single-chip Cloud Computer

December 3rd, 2009

Intel Labs has created an experimental Single-chip Cloud Computer, (SCC) a research microprocessor containing the most Intel Architecture cores ever integrated on a silicon CPU chip 48 cores. It incorporates technologies intended to scale multi-core processors to 100 cores and beyond, such as an on-chip network, advanced power management technologies and support for message-passing.

Stanford University – Office of Technology Licensing (OTL)

November 20th, 2009

Stanford University’s Office of Technology Licensing (OTL) is one of the country’s most active offices in the field of technology transfer from university to industry. Their staff, most of whom are professionals engaged directly in licensing, manages over 2,500 active dockets.

Stanford’s OTL licensing professionals evaluate technologies that are disclosed to OTL and then develop a licensing strategy for the particular technology. Each associate is responsible for a portfolio of dockets from “cradle to grave.” The associates each have an area of technical expertise in life sciences, physical sciences or both.

The mission of Stanford University’s OTL is to promote the transfer of Stanford technology for society’s use and benefit while generating unrestricted income to support research and education.
