New IBM Research Paper on Cell

[JF_Aidan_Pryde]

IBM's Journal of Research and Development has published a new paper on Cell, titled: "An Introduction to the Cell Microprocessor"

It's pretty long and I had a quick skim. Definitely more detailed than than the first paper after ISSCC. Worth a look.

I've got to take a little bit of credit on this one I'm afraid.

Nice if not exactly critical look at the Cell. I'd like to have a Cell workstation so I could play with one of these things.

Sorry, you can't take that credit:

And what's particularly lame is that I pointed this out in your very thread. A thread that's 8 messages long

LOL, well sorry Jawed.

I didn't read through my thread again to see whether I myself had been usurped - I just remember I posted this and went and found the link.

The fact that we used the same gif is total fluke chance by the way.

Gosh, is this about Cell or getting 'credit'?

Anyway, it's news to me (and a few other people). Duplicated post of the same story isn't entirely bad.

I totally agree with you Aiden. IMO this is an article that everyone should read if they get a chance, because it truly is interesting.
