Interestingly, the processors themselves contained no data memory; instead, data memory modules could be separately attached to the switched network.
The central processor used in the CDC 6400 series contained a unified arithmetic element which performed one machine instruction at a time.
Knowledge-based processors contain embedded databases that store information required to process packets that travel through a network at wireline speeds.
Mutli-core processors contain multiple processors all executing separate threads.
The processor die contains plenty of high-bandwidth HyperTransport hardware for multiprocessor setups (which is actually disabled on desktop parts).
This processor contains two cores in one rather than have two separate processors.
These processors do not contain microcode or hardware features that accelerate their designated workloads.
Markings on the A5 chip (E4E4) confirm the processor contains two 2Gb dies-4 gigabits is equivalent to half a gigabyte, or 512MB.
The 2U compute module contained the processors, memory and four PCI-X slots on two buses.
The processor contains all of the maps and other information that feeds to the cuff display.
