Transitive(TM) to Further Accelerate RISC Migration With Intel; Extends QuickTransit(R) Virtualization Software to Intel Itanium(R) 2 and Intel(R) Xeon(R) Processor Based Platforms.SAN FRANCISCO San Francisco (săn frănsĭs`kō), city (1990 pop. 723,959), coextensive with San Francisco co., W Calif., on the tip of a peninsula between the Pacific Ocean and San Francisco Bay, which are connected by the strait known as the Golden -- Transitive transitive - A relation R is transitive if x R y & y R z => x R z. Equivalence relations, pre-, partial and total orders are all transitive. Corporation, the leading provider of software that enables transportability of applications across multiple processor and operating system operating system (OS) Software that controls the operation of a computer, directs the input and output of data, keeps track of files, and controls the processing of computer programs. (OS) pairs, today announced that it will work with Intel Corporation (company) Intel Corporation - A US microelectronics manufacturer. They produced the Intel 4004, Intel 8080, Intel 8086, Intel 80186, Intel 80286, Intel 80386, Intel 486 and Pentium microprocessor families as well as many other integrated circuits and personal computer networking to accelerate the migration of SW application codes from legacy RISC RISC in full Reduced Instruction Set Computing Computer architecture that uses a limited number of instructions. RISC became popular in microprocessors in the 1980s. environments to the Intel Itanium 2 and Intel Xeon processor families. The companies will focus on developing QuickTransit Hardware Virtualization Providing a virtual machine capability in hardware. It refers to circuits in the processor and memory controller that enhance the running of multiple operating systems (multiple virtual machines). Technology Products for market release this year. "One of the biggest barriers to upgrading from one computer architecture to another is just how to migrate the installed base of in-house developed software and commercial software," said Bob Wiederhold, President and CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. of Transitive Corporation. "With Intel, we are focused on providing binary translation In computing, binary translation is the emulation of one instruction set by another through translation of code. Sequences of instructions are translated from the source to the target instruction set. technology products to easily shift existing legacy code or application packages that have been compiled on non-Intel platforms to run without modification on Intel Itanium and Intel Xeon processor-based platforms." "Based on strong customer demand to migrate off RISC architectures, Intel is working closely with Transitive to accelerate migration to Intel Itanium(R) processor-based platforms," said Kirk Skaugen, Vice President, Digital Enterprise Group at Intel Corporation. "Customers can expect to see outstanding performance of their RISC-based binaries on Intel Itanium based systems coupled with Transitive's QuickTransit dynamic binary translation products." Intel will provide funding and access to key engineering resources to facilitate the ongoing development and testing of QuickTransit for Intel Xeon processors and QuickTransit for Intel Itanium processors. Intel will also work with Transitive to promote the use of QuickTransit technology to computer manufacturers, independent software vendors (ISVs), internal software development groups, IT services companies, and end-customers. Visit Transitive at the Intel Developer Forum Intel Developer Forum (IDF), is a twice yearly gathering of technologists to discuss Intel products and products based around Intel products. The first IDF was in 1997. There is usually a Spring IDF and a Fall IDF. , March 7, 8 and 9, 2006, in booth #340. About Transitive Corporation Transitive Corporation is a pioneer and leader in providing solutions that allow the transportability of software applications across multiple hardware platforms. The company's QuickTransit hardware virtualization technology allows software applications that have been compiled for one processor/operating system to run on another without any source code or binary changes and at speeds comparable to native ports. The technology dramatically reduces software developers' cost, risk, and time-to-market of supporting multiple hardware platforms, facilitates computer companies' migration to new computer platforms, and makes significantly more software available on hardware platforms. QuickTransit technology provides the engine for Apple's Rosetta translation software, and is currently shipping on all of Apple's Intel-based computers. It is also shipping on all Silicon Graphics' Linux/Itanium-based computers. Transitive Corporation is located in Los Gatos, California “Los Gatos” redirects here. For the Argentine rock band, see Los Gatos (band). Los Gatos is an incorporated town in Santa Clara County, California, United States. The population was 28,592 at the 2000 census. , with a research and development team in Manchester, England. The company is privately held, with funding participation by Pond Venture Partners Ltd., Manchester Technology Fund, Crescendo Ventures and Accel Partners.
