Is Multicore the Dawn of a New Computing Era?

You don’t want to miss this session. Hear firsthand from one of the industry’s leading multicore masterminds on how this trend is on the verge of spawning an entirely new computing model. Scott will discuss how multicore processing is rapidly moving beyond the number of cores on a chip and the impact this new architecture will have on information technology and application workloads. At the center of it all – the question – does this trend have the ability to spawn an entirely new compute model? Will multicore architectures offer performance gains that can be measured by orders of magnitude and enable new systems and applications? Or will they simply result in minimal, incremental benefits that do not drive down data center cost and data center? And can they solve one of the key challenges facing data centers today, delivering the computing resources needed to deploy the next-generation of large-scale commercial applications based on resource-hungry transaction intensive applications, such as those built on the Java™ or J2EE™ platform and Microsoft® .Net™ framework.
