New book claims Impact Engineering much better

Although the Agile Manifesto has existed for over two decades, solid research still exists on its impact on the tech industry.

Foveros packaging at its best with new P- and E-cores, Intel Thread Director, new NPU, and Arc Xe2 GPU

Intel has shed more details about its Lunar Lake architecture during the Tech Tour event, including details about all the improvements it will bring to the new Core Ultra mobile processors. This is an extensive list that includes new Lion Cove P-cores, Skymont E-cores, new NPU, the Arc Xe2 Battlemage GPU, and enhancements to the Intel Thread Director, all neatly packaged into a single-tiled SoC.

Driven by AI development with TSMC Wei ahead

TSMC new supremo C C Wei has reaffirmed expectations for artificial intelligence (AI) development to drive this year's industry recovery.

Hardwired into the SoC

Starting with its upcoming Lunar Lake laptop CPU series, Intel will install memory into the processor SoC itself, offering only 16GB or 32GB initially. This will mean the end of user-replaceable RAM, at least for this series of chips.
