UNIX Operating System Porting Experiences | 2006-11-29 01:00:19 | Alcatel-Lucent |
| One of the reasons for the dramatic growth in popularity of the UNIX operating system is the portability of both the operating system and its associated user-level programs. This paper highlights the portability of the UNIX operating system, presents some general porting considerations, and shows how some of the ideas were used in actual UNIX operating system porting efforts. Discussions of the efforts associated with porting the UNIX operating system to an Intel 8086-based system, two UNIVAC 1100 Series processors, and the AT&T 3B20S and 3B5 minicomputers are presented. | |||

A Public-Key Cryptographic Processor for RSA and ECC | 2005-08-02 03:00:01 | |
| This paper describes an extension to a general-purpose processor for accelerating public-key cryptosystems. Supported are the legacy cryptosystems RSA and DH as well as the newly emerging Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) system. As this paper will show, minimal extensions suffice to efficiently support these public-key cryptosystems. Due to its computational efficiency, ECC is emerging as an attractive alternative to traditional public-key cryptosystems such as RSA, DSA, and DH. More specifically, ECC offers equivalent security with smaller key sizes, in less computation time and with less memory. | |||

Intelligent RAID 6 Uses Dual Independent Parity Coding Schemes for Extra Data Protection | 2005-06-15 03:00:01 | Intel |
| RAID 6 is an emerging technology for shared storage systems and the large, high-capacity SATA disk arrays used in servers today. With double parity coding, intelligent RAID 6 delivers the highest level of reliability and data protection in a cost-effective solution. To produce the dual independent parity schemes in RAID 6, XOR and encoding needs to be done in hardware. The new Intel IOP333 I/O processor with Intel XScale microarchitecture was to be the first commercially available processor to provide the necessary hardware acceleration and features for RAID 6 applications. | |||

Intel Case Study: NetScaler Inc. | 2005-06-15 03:00:01 | Intel |
| NetScaler's 9000 Series family of application delivery systems combine the crucial components of application optimization and security with robust switching capabilities on a single unified platform. To overcome the design challenges of building this multi-functional platform, NetScaler developers sought off-the-shelf hardware components that would complement the company's sophisticated kernel-level Request Switching packet engine. Influenced by performance, flexibility, reliability and quality, they selected the Intel Xeon processor as the core processor for NetScaler's flagship product line. This case study examines how standards-based Intel processors helped NetScaler deliver an industry-leading networking solution that not only outperforms ASIC-based solutions but also takes significantly less time to develop and costs much less to build. | |||

Intel, Nexcom and huperLab Introduce a Mega Surveillance System | 2005-06-15 03:00:01 | |
| Random threats to public safety - such as terrorist attacks - are fueling demand for better security surveillance in public venues. To confront today's security risks, the digital security surveillance (DSS) industry needs scalable hardware platforms that meet a high performance threshold. The ideal solution includes a high-density port count to power several cameras, high I/O bandwidth for streaming real-time video, and strong processing for D1 video quality and compression. Nexcom applied its expertise in blade system platform design to come up with a high-density/high-performance solution for DSS applications. | |||

Digital-Logic Finds Intel Pentium M Processor an Ideal Fit for Developing Embedded PCs | 2005-06-15 03:00:01 | |
| Originally designed for mobile systems such as notebook computers, the Intel Pentium M processor features high performance, low power consumption and a flat, fanless design to meet the specific requirements of this computing arena. But these same characteristics also suit this processor to embedded applications, a market segment where developers are putting it to good use. This case study describes how Switzerland-based Digital-Logic AG - a leading provider of embedded computing solutions - came to rely on a Pentium M processor platform to develop a highly integrated PC module that serves as both the core component of in-house product design and the basis of third-party solutions built by system OEMs. | |||

EmergeCore Networks Goes From Concept to Product in Seven Months With Help From the Intel Media Switch IXE2412 10/100 Device and Embedded Intel Architecture | 2005-06-15 03:00:01 | |
| As broadband access becomes more of a commodity, Internet service providers and local exchange carriers are shifting their focus from merely providing a high-speed Internet connection to the enhanced revenue potential of value-added services. The problem for carriers and service providers is how to deliver new multiple high-bandwidth services to a large population of end-users, without saturating the network. To solve this problem, EmergeCore Networks has created a mesh network that integrates the EC Reactor Open IP Services Platform. This innovative design is based on the combination of the Intel Media Switch IXE2412 10/100 Device and an embedded Intel architecture design that features the Intel Pentium III processor and other building blocks. | |||
