UMI Can Scale the Memory Wall


While the improvements in processor performance to enable the incredible compute requirements of applications like Chat-GPT get all the headlines, a not-so-new phenomenon known as the memory wall risks negating those advancements. Indeed, it has been clearly demonstrated that as CPU/GPU performance increases, wait time for memory also increases, preventing full utilization of the processors. ... » read more

Chiplets and the Early Adopter’s Dilemma


Early adopters of a new technology often face a serious dilemma. On one hand, moving early means exploiting the most aggressive new technology available. But on the other hand, making early technology decisions can lock a product line into a path that will later become uncompetitive—either a single-vendor solution that can’t guarantee continuity of supply, or a roadmap that can’t shift an... » read more
