Intel Advancing 5 Nodes in 4 Years; today there is more to a CPU than just cores

Dallas Section – IEEE Communications & Vehicular Technology – Please Note 03/19/24 Date

Dallas CVT February 2024 update.

Our spring 2024 meetings continue with our regular Third Tuesday slot for March and April.  These meetings are scheduled for:

March 19, 2024, Larry J. Horner will be presenting the Intel Roadmap that has led to ‘Five Nodes in 4 Years, today there is more to a CPU than just cores’.  See more details below:

April 16, 2024, we will be again at the UT Dallas SPN.1, the topic will be announced shortly.

For May we are considering a social activity, tentatively a Friday evening of AA Baseball with the Frisco Roughriders. Watch your email for a poll.  We need a good head count for planning purposes.

Tuesday, March 19, 2024, 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM at UT Dallas SPN.1

Topic: Intel advancing 5 Nodes in 4 Years, today there is more to a CPU than just cores.

Speaker Bio: Larry Horner is a Senior Life member of IEEE, the IEEE CVT chair, Senior Solution Architect and Principal Engineer at Intel. He has been co-chair of the IEEE ComSoc NFV/SDN conference for 7 years and has spent nearly 40 years in the Telco industry, holding multiple U.S. Patents.  He is also lead co-author of the book ‘Virtualizing 5G and Beyond 5G Mobile Network’.

Abstract: Everyone should be familiar with the concept of ‘Moore’s law’. Intel in the past three years has been on a torrid pace to build 5 nodes in four years. In addition to the geometry reduction in these nodes, there have been significant design innovations to further advance the state of the art of the world’s most advance manufacturing process, building semiconductor-based CPU’s. From AI innovations to advances in architecture for special functions like vRAN acceleration in the CPU architecture, to innovations like Power-Via, and uncore power management, this talk will span these innovations as the node architecture moved from 10nm to the 18A (angstrom) era with 14A on the horizon.

Parking passes will be available to those that register, and lunch for a fee.

*** RSVP required to reserve lunch.

Lunch is available starting at 11:30 am.

You do not need to be an IEEE member to attend these presentations.
