When Arm meets Intel - Overcoming the Challenges of Merging Architectures on an SoC to Enable Machine LearningCadence IP Blog - Steven Brown, CadenceSep. 26, 2017 |
As the stakes for winning server segment market share grow ever higher an increasing number of companies are seeking to grasp the latest Holy Grail of multi-chip coherence. The approach promises to better enable applications such as machine learning, network processing, in-memory data base, and other large dataset tasks. Arm and its partners continue to pursue the server market long dominated by Intel. The results will be SoCs that combine Arm CPU sub-systems with high speed interfaces such as PCI Express 4, presenting a myriad of challenges blending the architectures of Arm and Intel. Arm and Cadence have collaborated to create a reference design, addressing the challenges and capturing the information to share with the industry and improve productivity for creating and verifying these complex systems.
