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.

Corrent Security Appliances Sustain Maximum Throughput - Even Under Attack | 2005-06-15 03:00:01 |
|
| |
Corrent needed server motherboards that offered different levels of I/O capability and performance. Plus, Corrent engineers wanted motherboards with the IPMI interface to allow for remote management, thereby making it possible to deploy multiple appliances across an enterprise while managing them from a single console. Corrent met all of their performance and price needs with Intel architecture. Today, Corrent engineers use Intel processors, chipsets and server boards in a variety of configurations to scale solutions according to the performance and price requirements of different customers.

Intel Case Study: ADLINK Technology | 2005-06-15 03:00:01 |
|
| |
In this case study, three embedded Intel Architecture components form the foundation for two entirely different processing platforms: one for a mobile application, the other for a telecom storage application. This case study explains how the Intel Pentium M processor, Intel 855GME chipset, and Intel 6300ESB I/O controller hub help ADLINK deliver high-performance, low-power modular platforms for extremely fast time-to-market in two very different solutions.

Unique network security system owes flexibility and adaptability to the Intel Architecture-based platform. According to Crossbeam Systems, a security services layer would offer strategic placement for the deployment of all security components. Such a layer would include both hardware and software solutions, selected for their ability to adhere to a comprehensive, corporate-level security policy. Ideally, all components deployed in this layer would offer the highest levels of performance to provide optimum network protection. The Crossbeam Systems X40S Open Security Appliance meets all of the requirements for high performance and unmatched security in today's complex networks.

Embedded Intel Architecture Optimizes New, Multi-Service Edge Router | 2005-06-15 03:00:01 |
|
| |
Laurel Networks engineers had their work cut out for them-to create a service edge router that would allow telecom carriers to offer multiple services (such as ATM, Frame Relay, VPNs and Internet connectivity) with carrier grade performance on a single IP-based network. The resulting optimized architecture immediately impacts carrier profitability by enabling new services while significantly reducing capital and operations costs. To provide this system, Laurel Networks needed an extremely powerful and fast processor. Using Intel Architecture-based building blocks to meet these needs, Laurel Networks developed the ST200 Service Edge Router, which combines Internet-class routing, multi-service support and architecture flexibility to support current and evolving service provider requirements-all at wire speed.

Modular Server Blade Maximizes Capacity With the Intel Pentium III Processor - Low Power at 700MHz | 2005-06-15 03:00:01 |
|
| |
When increasing server capacity to meet a growing application load, IT managers have traditionally added new boxes inside the rack. Vendors searching for ways to improve network security and increase rack and system density need high performance components that can function well with low thermal output, low power consumption, and high memory capacity. OmniCluster Technologies used the high performance Intel Pentium III processor - Low Power at 700 MHz, to develop modular server blades that increase capacity without taking up rack space.

Virgin Mobile USA: Moving to a Service-Oriented Architecture on BEA WebLogic Platform 8.1 and Intel Xeon Processor-Based Servers | 2005-06-16 03:00:01 |
|
| |
Virgin Mobile is one of the fastest-growing domestic wireless services. It achieved its tremendous growth by focusing exclusively on the youth market and providing highly configurable and customized services. The challenge it faced was how to improve delivery of numerous new services - all of them extraordinarily customizable - while driving down internal IT costs. To reduce costs while improving performance, Virgin Mobile migrated to BEA WebLogic Platform 8.1 and deployed the software on Red Hat Linux running on Intel Xeon processor-based servers. This hardware configuration cost significantly less than comparable RISC-based servers and produced substantial performance gains.

University of Hong Kong HPC Cluster Speeds Up Research and Makes TOP500 Supercomputer List With Intel Xeon Processors | 2005-06-17 03:00:02 |
|
| |
As more research projects ranging from nano-technology to large scale statistical simulations come to rely on supercomputing simulations and calculations for answers, the University of Hong Kong (HKU) needed to build a supercomputing cluster that could support its growing user base and demand for higher computing capabilities to handle more complex problems. This had to be done within a research and development budget that dictated an economical cost for this high-performance computing solution. The University of Hong Kong (HKU) installed an Intel Xeon processor-based HPC cluster and fine-tuned its software to yield maximum performance.
