From Nano-scale to Tera-scale: an Intel Perspective

 

The Corporate Technology Group (CTG) is Intel’s central research organization, which spans the entire globe incorporating 15 locations and nearly 1,000 researchers from a broad range of disciplines—circuits to software, radios to many-core processor architectures. The presentation will introduce CTG, and then dive into some of its latest research breakthroughs: integrating optical components with Silicon photonics, new “digital” radios, many-core processors that deliver teraFLOPS on a single chip, and more.

Abel Weinrib is vice president and Director of the Corporate Technology Group for Intel Corporation. He is responsible for Intel’s visionary research and technology innovation for future platforms. Weinrib joined Intel in 1994 and has held a variety of senior positions within the Corporate Technology Group. Before coming to Intel, Weinrib was a member of the technical staff at Bell Communications Research. Weinrib received his bachelor’s degree from MIT in 1979 and his Ph.D. from Harvard University in 1983, both in physics. From 1994 to 2001, he served as executive director of the Internet Architecture Board and from 1995 to 1999 was chair of the Internet Research Task Force. Weinrib has published broadly in the fields of networking and communications.
