Quantum information science is no longer confined to chalkboards and controlled laboratory tests. You now see working quantum ...

Modern microprocessors are a marvel of technological progress and engineering. At less than a dollar per unit, even the cheapest microprocessors on the market are orders of magnitude more powerful ...

Fifty-three years ago, Intel launched the 4004, the first commercial microprocessor designed by the Italian genius Federico Faggin. This 4-bit chip transformed the technological world, opening the ...

The microprocessor is a computer processor of arithmetic, logic, and control circuitry on a single integrated circuit. The ...

Linux is a modern operating system that supports all of the latest technologies, but it's also a legacy-friendly system that dates back to 1991. If it's a computer, you can probably run Linux on it, ...

WTF?! A well-known hacker has done the impossible. He got a stripped-down version of Linux to run on a 4-bit Intel chip from the early 1970s. Sure, it takes nearly five days for the kernel to boot, ...

If your Intel CPU is acting up, rest easy — it’s not just you. In fact, the owners of some of Intel’s best processors have been going through a rough time lately — and that even includes game ...

Abstract: Investigates the context for the development of one of the earliest microprocessors, the Intel 4004. It considers the contributions made by Intel employees, most notably Marcian E. "Ted" ...

This is quite a bit bigger than the original 12mm² die. The Intel 4004 was among the first microprocessors and one of the first to use the MOS silicon-gate technology. In the decades long race to ...

1971 – what a year that was – and I'm afraid I can remember most of it. In November 1971, the Mariner 9 satellite orbited Mars, the album Led Zeppelin IV was released and Oman was granted independence ...
