what does cross-memory architecture and itanium have in common? some hints http://www.hpl.hp.com/news/2001/apr-jun/worley.html http://www.hpl.hp.com/news/2001/apr-jun/itanium.html a current itanium reference http://www.tgdaily.com/2006/01/27/itanium_alliance_10b_bet/ and had to go to the wayback machine for this one: http://web.archive.org/web/20000415125122/http://www.hpl.hp.com/features/bill_worley_interview.html and for additional drift in the above reference, various 801 related posts http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/subtopic.html#801 collected dual-address space and cross-memory posts/references: http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/95.html#11a Crashproof Architecture http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/98.html#6 OS with no distinction between RAM and HD ? http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/98.html#11 S/360 operating systems geneaology http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2000c.html#35 What level of computer is needed for a computer to Love? http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2000c.html#83 Is a VAX a mainframe? http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2000c.html#84 Is a VAX a mainframe? http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2000e.html#57 Why not an IBM zSeries workstation? http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2000g.html#28 Could CDR-coding be on the way back? http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2002e.html#32 What goes into a 3090? http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2002p.html#13 Multics on emulated systems? http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2002p.html#43 cost of crossing kernel/user boundary http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2003.html#13 FlexEs and IVSK instruction http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2003j.html#65 Cost of Message Passing ? http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2003m.html#29 SR 15,15 http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2003n.html#45 hung/zombie users ... long boring, wandering story http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2004c.html#6 If the x86 ISA could be redone http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2004e.html#41 Infiniband - practicalities for small clusters http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2004k.html#26 Timeless Classics of Software Engineering http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2005m.html#55 54 Processors? http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2005p.html#18 address space http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2005p.html#19 address space http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2006.html#32 UMA vs SMP?
