Comparing High-Performance Microprocessor Architectures presented
by Peter N. Glaskowsky
The microprocessor industry today is a battleground between two opposing
factions—advocates of faster general-purpose processors, and those who
believe that application-specific architectures can provide superior overall
performance. This conflict goes far beyond the old CISC vs. RISC debate,
and could force us to redefine our concept of the microprocessor. Seminar
attendees will learn about the most important high-performance microprocessor
architectures in both camps, as well as techniques being used for programmable
graphics, networking, and "extreme" processors. You'll learn the underlying
microarchitecture techniques vendors use to boost performance, and how
compiler technology is adapting to these new designs. This seminar is
aimed at system architects, designers of processor support chips and software,
and technical marketers who need to understand the relative strengths
and weaknesses of today's best microprocessors.
The Embedded Processor Landscape: Selecting a Processor for Embedded
Systems
presented by Markus Levy
Some of the fastest, most complex, and highest volume chips have been
designed for embedded applications. Which is right for yours? The embedded
market is not a sleepy backwater anymore. With over 100 embedded chips
vying for your attention, it can take months to find the right one. In-Stat/MDR's
seminar, The Embedded Processor Landscape: Selecting a Processor for Embedded
Systems, is a valuable day-long decision-making resource.
This seminar will include:
- analysis and specifications of key embedded chips
- processor selection guidelines making it easy to find chips that
meet your specifications
- independent analysis of each architecture from the most trusted source
in the industry.
