Embedded applications begin to join the multi-core army
Doug Davis, vice president and general manager of Intel's Embedded and Communications Group, said: "There is a trend that embedded applications do not need the performance improvements provided by multi-core, but this is not the case." He pointed out that in high-end communications and medical imaging, etc. In computing-intensive applications, embedded system customers have asked Intel to provide multi-core devices with a longer life cycle. Market research firm In-Stat analyst Jim McGregor pointed out that embedded developers want higher-performance multi-core chips, such as the integration of the functions of four separate chips into a quad-core chip to reduce power consumption. "A large number of embedded applications hope that the processor can still maintain the necessary performance levels while increasing its processing capacity or reducing its size," said McGregor. Intel recently announced that it will provide quad-core processors for the embedded computing market, which did not cause much surprise. By adding a quad-core Xeon 5300 processor to the company’s embedded product roadmap, Intel warrants its availability for at least 5-7 years. Intel’s move was similar to that of a year ago, when it announced the extension of the processor’s life cycle a month after its introduction of the Core Duo processor for mainstream applications. Intel later announced that certain Core 2 Duo processors are suitable for the embedded market. In the recent ESC keynote speech, Intel's Davis focused on the fact that today more security information is becoming more and more important as more information is generated and stored. These are all brought to embedded system designers. Increasing challenges. The line between embedded applications and infrastructure is becoming blurred, he pointed out, users can not tolerate the system can not achieve the effect of advertising. For example, Davis cited a recent computer system merger between America West and US Air. The merger was very successful. Thousands of scheduled messages were processed almost seamlessly, but hundreds of passengers were still affected. This problem has brought great public pressure on the company, he pointed out. "As developers, our job is to mask the complexity of the system," Davis said. "This complexity will only manifest when the system does not work as expected. Users cannot tolerate the complexity behind the system. We must not discount the ease of use." Davis said that for companies with a large number of legacy applications, the use of multi-core processors will enable them to continue to run legacy applications on a single core without having to rewrite those huge amounts of code; at the same time, they can also run on other cores. New application. This feature is very attractive for military applications. "Developers cannot eliminate a batch of digital infrastructure every few years in order to use new technology," Davis pointed out. Intel was prominent at its ESC booth and demonstrated its customers' work with Core Duo processors for embedded applications. The representative of Intel claimed that multi-core chips enable embedded system developers to create new applications and bring them greater design space. "We have found many applications that use dual-core," said Phil Hiller, strategic account manager at Kontron USA. "Every place where you have to deal with a lot of information quickly, engineers are trying to use processors to do more. Work, but before they usually use FPGAs.†Kontron specializes in embedded and mobile products, recently introduced a series of embedded motherboards that support the Intel Core 2 Duo processor T7400. Dale Johnson, vice president of systems sales and product operations at Real Digital Media, a provider of digital signage platforms, has said that his company is turning to multicore because of "more processing power and multithreading." In January of this year, Real Digital Media introduced the latest digital signage product, Neocast Media Player Z, running on a Core Duo processor and supporting HD video, Windows Media and Apple's QuickTime format. "We have taken a very pragmatic approach to the issue. We only need to know: feasible or not feasible? To meet the power demand or not satisfied?" he said. Intel’s representatives also demonstrated NCR’s latest retail POS system. Intel pointed out that the high performance of multi-core allows NCR to extract some of the functions previously run on the back-end server and put it directly on the system of the retail point of sale, which will reduce the delay. NCR has used the second kernel to support the second LCD display, which can be targeted to them to play advertisements based on consumers' previous shopping habits. The system can be remotely controlled so that technicians can diagnose and solve problems in their own office. Intel and AMD battle the embedded market again Intel's rival AMD is also selling multi-core devices to the embedded systems market. In August 2005, AMD added several dual-core Opteron processors to its long-term supply plan for embedded design applications. "AMD has always loved and hated the embedded market. Over the past few years, AMD has gradually embraced the embedded market and has expressed a stronger desire to support the market. "In-Stat McGregor said," Intel's support for the embedded market has always performed well." Indeed, Davis spent 45 minutes in a one-hour keynote address detailing Intel’s 30-year support of the embedded market. He also announced that the Xeon E5335 and E5345 are Intel’s first quad-core processors for embedded computing. . Intel also invited Paul Teutal Sr. of Orange County Choppers, an American motorcycle manufacturer, to the show to celebrate Intel's new product launch, which produced and produced an Intel-themed motorcycle. This motorcycle is a hot spot for the whole show. A large number of exhibitors have come to San Jose.
