         Group description

    CPU modes (also called processor modes, CPU states, CPU privilege levels and other names) are operating modes for the central processing unit of some computer architectures that place restrictions on the type and scope of operations that can be performed by certain processes being run by the CPU. This design allows the operating system to run with more privileges than application software.

            • CPU Performance Boosted 20% When CPU, GPU Collaborate
              Researchers have managed to get CPUs and GPUs on a single chip to work together more efficiently and boost performance.
            • Parvus' CPU-111-10 Receives Editor's Choice Award From VME and Critical Systems Magazine
              SALT LAKE CITY, UT-- - Eurotech subsidiary Parvus Corporation today announced that the Winter issue of VME and Critical Systems magazine selected the CPU-111-10 for its Editor's Choice Award. The CPU-111-10 ...
            • Researchers boost processor performance by getting CPU and GPU to collaborate
              Researchers at North Carolina State University have developed a technique to take advantage of the "fused architecture" emerging on multicore CPUs that puts central processing units and graphics processing units on the same chip. The technology, called CPU-assisted general purpose computation on graphics processor units (CPU-assisted GPGPU) uses software compiled to leverage the architecture to ...
            • AMD Bets the Farm on CPU-GPU Integration Strategy
              Advanced Micro Devices is making its next-gen Heterogeneous System Architecture completely open to nurture a developer ecosystem for its future chips.
            • CPU-GPU "collaboration" boosts processor performance
              Researchers at North Carolina State University have developed a technique that allows graphics processing units (GPUs) and central processing units (CPUs) on a single chip to improve their level of collaboration. read more
            • The death of CPU scaling: From one core to many — and why we’re still stuck
              A number of new CPU companies with aggressive many-core architectures have made headlines in the last 12 months -- but they aren't the solution to the underlying problem. There's no simple way to improve CPU performance long-term -- and plenty of problems to overcome.
            • Engineers boost AMD CPU performance by 20% without overclocking
              Engineers at North Carolina State University have used a novel technique to boost the performance of an AMD Fusion APU by more than 20%.
            • AMD's 2012 - 2013 Client CPU/GPU/APU Roadmap Revealed
              AMD gave us a quick update on its 2012 - 2013 client roadmap, mostly focusing on new CPU/APU releases although there's a brief mention of Sea Islands - the follow-on to Southern Islands due out in 2013. AMD wasn't specific with what Sea Islands would bring us other than some more HSA (Heterogenous Systems Architecture, formerly Fusion System Architecture, aka heterogenous compute) enhancements ...
            • Chips with collaborating CPU and GPU lead to faster processors
              Want to get your computer to run faster? Well, consider its graphics processing unit (GPU) and central processing unit (CPU). The two work away at their own tasks, each one rarely helping the other shoulder its workload. Researchers from North Carolina State University, however, are in the process of changing that. They have already developed a technique that allows GPUs and CPUs located on a ...
            • CPU Startup Combines CPU+DRAM - and a Whole Bunch of Crazy
              "The CPU design firm Venray Technology announced a new product design this week that it claims can deliver enormous performance benefits by combining CPU and DRAM on to a single piece of silicon. We spent some time earlier this fall discussing the new TOMI (Thread Optimized Multiprocessor) with company CTO Russell Fish, but while the idea is interesting; its presentation is marred by crazy ...
