TileraA; Corporation, developer of the breakthrough TILE family of high-performance multicore processors, today announced its new TILE-Gx family -- four new processors from Tilera including the world's first 100-core processor: the TILE-Gx100 . The TILE-Gx100 offers the highest performance of any microprocessor yet announced by a factor of four. Moreover, the entire TILE-Gx family raises the bar for performance-per-watt to new levels, with ten times better compute To perform mathematical operations or general computer processing. For an explanation of "The 3 C's," or how the computer processes data, see computer.  efficiency compared to Intel's next generation Westmere processors. And Tilera has simplified many-core programming with its breakthrough Multicore Development Environment (MDE MDE Minnesota Department of Education

), together with a growing ecosystem of 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.
 and software partners to enable rapid product deployment.

The TILE-Gx family -- available with 16, 36, 64 and 100 cores -- employs Tilera's unique architecture that scales well beyond the core count of traditional microprocessors. Tilera's two-dimensional iMesh interconnect eliminates the need for an on-chip bus and its Dynamic Distributed Cache (DDC See VESA DDC.  ) system allows each core's local cache to be shared coherently across the entire chip. These two key technologies enable the TILE Architecture performance to scale linearly with the number of cores on the chip -- a feat that is currently unmatched.

"The launch of the TILE-Gx family, including the world's first 100-core microprocessor, ushers in a new era of many-core processing. We believe this next generation of high-core count, ultra high-performance chips will open completely new computing computing - computer  possibilities," said Omid Tahernia, Tilera's 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. . "Customers will be able to replace an entire board presently using a dozen or more chips with just one of our TILE-Gx processors, greatly simplifying the system architecture and resulting in reduced cost, power consumption, and PC board area. This is truly a remarkable technology achievement."

Leading the Evolution to Many-Core

Tilera's breakthroughs in scalable multicore computing are changing the model of computing. Many-core processors enable a wide range of new opportunities including:

-- Consolidation of functions: A single many-core processor can absorb

functions that previously required multiple processors, thus lowering

system cost and providing a single software tool chain and programming

model for developers.

-- Granularity The degree of modularity of a system. More granularity implies more flexibility in customizing a system, because there are more, smaller increments (granules) from which to choose.  of compute: Processing resources can be allocated to

functions in precise increments, optimizing performance and saving power.

-- Deterministic 1. (probability) deterministic - Describes a system whose time evolution can be predicted exactly.

Contrast probabilistic.
2. (algorithm) deterministic - Describes an algorithm in which the correct next step depends only on the current state.
 compute: Enables processor cores to be dedicated to

specific tasks, including cache-coherent islands of compute, for highly

predictable performance.

"At various points in microprocessor history there have been breakthroughs that have enabled significant advances in computing, such as when the barrier of single-core clock speed was overcome by the introduction of multicore," said Sergis Mushell, principal research analyst, Gartner. "Cloud
