White Paper This system, called LineSnort, parallelizes Snort using concurrency across TCP sessions and executes those parallel tasks on multiple low-frequency pipelined RISC processors embedded in the NIC. This paper presents and evaluates a strategy for... [07 Jul 2008]
Evolving Your HP-UX Environments From PA-RISC to the Intel Itanium Architecture
White Paper For many application implementations, HP servers with Intel Itanium 2 processors offer the best performance, scalability, and investment protection available today. There are many strong reasons to move most demanding workloads to Itanium-based... [03 Jul 2008]
Should I Stay or Should I Go?: Solving the Dilemma of 32-Bit Versus 64-Bit Server Architecture
White Paper Many traditional IT shops now face a variant of the very same question posed by The Clash: to stay with RISC chips, or go with new 64-bit Intel AMD processors delivering almost equal or better computational power. [27 Mar 2008]
Virtualization for Competitive Advantage
White Paper Albridge Solutions has migrated from proprietary RISC/UNIX servers to the Egenera BladeFrame system running Linux on x86 processors. Initially, IT considered building a virtualized environment from white boxes, but found that complexity and... [04 Mar 2008]
An FPGA-Based Network Processor for IP Packet Compression
White Paper In the demonstration application, FPGA technology is used in conjunction with traditional RISC micro-processors to perform IP packet compression in hard-ware, using a CAM-based hardware implementation of the Lempel-Ziv (LZ) compression algorithm. [26 Dec 2007]
Itanium revisited - one year on
Comment Recent server shipment figures show HP shooting past industry averages and, in particular, boosting high-end server shipments in the Risc-Itanium market. Could it be that despite Itanium delays and disappointments, the transition from PA-Risc and... [13 Dec 2007]
HP sx2000 Chipset
White Paper In addition, with the support of the HP PA-8900 RISC processors on the sx2000 chipset, HP Itanium 2 processors and PA-8900 RISC processors can concurrently operate in an HP Integrity Superdome in separate hard partitions. [01 Feb 2007]
Intel sheds another fringe business
News At one point, Intel had hoped to transform the telecommunications business with products based on industry standards, in a fashion similar to how it moved the server market away from Risc (reduced instruction set computer) processors running Unix. [10 Aug 2006]
RIM picks Intel for BlackBerry
News RIM's current BlackBerry devices use chips based on the ARM 9 Risc processor architecture, though Lazaridis did not specify which company supplied chips for the BlackBerry. Ending months of speculation, Research In Motion, maker of the BlackBerry... [28 Sep 2005]
