The Race For AI Semiconductor Chips

Photo by david latorre romero on Unsplash THE NEED FOR AI SEMICONDUCTOR CHIPS Multi-Core Processor (MCP) or Chip Multi-Processor (CMP) revolutionized the computing industry. MCP/CMP came up with advanced execution and parallelism techniques. Software took the opportunity provided by the multiple processors fused into the single System-On-A-Chip (SoC). MCP also provided the advantage of Out-of-Order Execution (OoOE), instructions-level parallelism (ILP), thread-level parallelism (TLP), and interleaved Simultaneous Multithreading (SMT), and allowed multiple applications to run on the same processor or multiple cores in the same SoC. Soon, the Single Instruction Stream, Single Data Stream (SISD) evolved into Multiple Instruction Streams, Multiple Data Streams (MIMD). MIMD gave a new experience to the data-intensive applications in the post-internet era. The semiconductor and computing industry took advantage of MCP for over a decade by […]
