On Monday at San Francisco seminar Intel has introduced the three new i7 series core processor, i7 that is next generation micro-architecture. In this i7 processor you’ll get the maximum performance, it is the combination of Intel Turbo Boost technology(that maximizes speed for demanding applications, dynamically accelerate performance) and Intel Hyper-Threading technology (that improves the performance by highly threaded applications [with 8 threads] and provide you the better way to handle the workloads).

Intel has launched the first microprocessor Code-named ‘Dunnington’, that has been almost completely developed in India at its Bangalore design center. The world’s leading computer chip making company Intel launched new Xeon 7400 series microprocessor is developed for businesses that want to boost server performance while conserving on space and energy. The chip uses less electricity and is as much as 48 per cent faster than previous models, This is a great invention in the field of computer hardware research and development scene in India. Intel’s Xeon 7400 series microprocessor Contains 1.9 billion transistors with 16 MB shared L3 cache and it is based on the latest 45 NM High-K fabrication process. testing of this chip is done by Intel’s Bangalore laboratories to make sure that it is compatible with most of the existing. Dell Inc, Hewlett-Packard Co, International Business Machines Corp and Sun Microsystems Inc will start selling computers that use the Xeon 7400 chips this week
According to Intel enterprise group vice president Tom Kilroy -
The six-core chip delivers 48-50 percent more performance than its quad-core predecessor while using 10 percent less electric power, “It isn’t just performance and energy efficiency but the use models.
Intel has introduced with seven versions or stock keeping units (SKUs) at launching:
-
Introduced 3 six-core versions and 4 are quad-core,
-
Cores can access up to 16MB of shared L3 cache,
-
Offer frequencies up to 2.66GHz at 130W,
-
Two low-power versions that save power, require only 50W for the quad-core, and 65W for the six-core.
Why six-core chip? Chips developed for server machines are very costly more than $1k, its approximately 10 times of the average price of PC processors. Intel developed processor that have multiple cores, means the greater number of tasks it can perform simultaneously. normally we have majority of two cores chips and more expensive models employ four.
Kilroy said, VP and GM of Intel’s Digital Enterprise Group -
“With new features such as additional cores, large shared caches and advanced virtualization technologies, the Xeon 7400 series delivers record-breaking performance that will lead enterprises into the next wave of virtualization deployments.”

At Intel’s Developer Forum (19-21 August 2008), Intel and Yahoo preview Widget Channel. Widget channel is a application framework that is optimized for devices running on Intel’s hardware platform. Widget channel will allows television users to enjoy rich Internet application while watching their favorite television program. Widget channel will be powered by Yahoo Widget Engine. Widget Channel is fifth generation application framework from Yahoo. The Yahoo! Widget Engine development environment takes advantage of industry standard tools, including JAVASCRIPT, XML, HTML and Flash.
Eric Kim, Intel senior vice president and general manager of the company’s Digital Home Group Said
TV will fundamentally change how we talk about, imagine and experience the Internet. No longer just a passive experience unless the viewer wants it that way, Intel and Yahoo! are proposing a way where the TV and Internet are as interactive, and seamless, as possible. Our close work has produced an exciting application framework upon which the industry can collaborate, innovate and differentiate. This effort is one of what we believe will be many exciting new ways to bring the Internet to the TV, and it really shows the potential of what consumers can look forward to
Marco Boerries, executive vice president, Connected Life, Yahoo! Inc, said
On the PC and mobile devices, Yahoo! is a leading starting point for millions of consumers around the world. Yahoo! aims to extend this leadership to the emerging world of Internet-connected TV, which we call the Cinematic Internet™. By partnering with leaders like Intel, we plan to combine the Internet benefits of open user choice, community, and personalization with the performance and scale embodied in the Intel Architecture to transform traditional TV into something bigger, better and more exciting than ever before. By using the popular Yahoo! Widget Engine to power the Widget Channel, we intend to provide an opportunity for all developers and publishers to create new experiences that can reach millions of TV viewers globally. Yahoo! plans to enable the Cinematic Internet™ ecosystem, which will benefit consumers, device makers, advertisers and publishers.
