| Sumario: | Reports on the use of chip-design techniques known as simultaneous multi-threading and asynchronous logic are, as of April, 2001. How simultaneous multi-threading switches between processors, making it seem as though many programs are running at once; How wireless devices based on asynchronous chips would run for longer between recharges and cause less radio interference; Statement that important uses have emerged for multi-threading and asynchronous logic, which were invented in the 1960s and 1950s, respectively. |
