Intel 32 core Processor/CPU

What does a processor do? A processor is the unit that reads and executes program instructions, which are fixed-length (typically 32 or 64 bit) or variable-length chunks of data. The data consists of number of instructions which specifies the work that is to be done. The instructions are very basic things like reading data from memory or sending data to the user display, but they are processed at a rapid speed that we experience the results as the smooth operation of a program. Processor consists of number of cores depending on it’s design(Dual core, Quad core, Hexa core etc). The number of tasks completed per second depends on these cores, if there is only one core in processor then instructions will be executed one at a time. Project “Keifer” Intel has assigned name “Keifer” to the many-core processor project and “Gulftown” specifically to its 32-core processor that will be manufactured using 32nm process(The 32 nm process ‘also called 32 nanomet...

Trends in Green Computing – Go Green IT

A   green computing we predicted that “green” would become a major part of IT decisions for a long time to come. There is no doubt in the eyes of the press that “green IT” is hot, and getting hotter. Given all the interest, we decided that a close tracking of the trends is important for the industry.   Green computing, or eco-centric computing, is the method for reducing the environmental impact and improving the efficiency of computing systems and operations. It is not limited to a set of technology products or strategies, but rather encompasses a holistic view of the global positive and negative impact of computing environments. The biggest business fad   toward green computing “ cost “   is still not getting the full momentum needed to dramatically drive a mind shift toward environmental efficiency of IT. This continues to be stalled by a lack of changes to budget allocation and failure to make IT responsible for their energy usage. That hasn’t stopped other under...

Getting the best display on your monitor

In this article • The best display settings for an LCD monitor • Set the color for an LCD monitor • The best display settings for a CRT monitor • Set the color for a CRT monitor • Color management • Calibrate your display • Set brightness and contrast • Improve the appearance of text Windows chooses the best display settings, including screen resolution, refresh rate, and color, based on your monitor. These settings differ depending on whether you have an LCD or a CRT monitor. If you want to adjust your display settings, or if these settings were changed and you want to restore default settings, use the following recommendations. LCD monitors, also called flat-panel displays, have largely replaced CRT monitors. They are far lighter and thinner than bulky CRT monitors, which contain heavy glass tubes. LCD monitors also come in a wider range of shapes and sizes, which include widescreen screens and standard-width screens, with ratios of 16:9 or 16:10 width-to-height for widescreen models...

Improve performance by defragmenting your hard disk

Fragmentation makes your hard disk do extra work that can slow down your computer. Removable storage devices such as USB flash drives can also become fragmented. Disk Defragmenter rearranges fragmented data so your disks and drives can work more efficiently. Disk Defragmenter runs on a schedule, but you can also analyze and defragment your disks and drives manually. To do this, follow these steps: 1. Click to open Disk Defragmenter. 2. Under Current status, select the disk you want to defragment. 3. To determine if the disk needs to be defragmented or not, click Analyze disk.   If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation. Once Windows is finished analyzing the disk, you can check the percentage of fragmentation on the disk in the Last Run column. If the number is above 10%, you should defragment the disk. 4. Click Defragment disk.   If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the ...

New SUSE/Moblin Linux netbook from MSI arrives

What do you get when you mix Novell's SLED (SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop) 11 with the Linux Foundation's Moblin 2.1 netbook desktop? A lightweight Linux desktop that's trying to snag the netbook desktop market before Google's Chrome OS runs away with it later this year. How well will Novell do at this? Today, on January 7th, at the CES (Consumer Electronics Association), we'll find out. MSI is releasing the first shipping of SUSE Moblin on its MSI U135 netbook. According to Guy Lunardi, Novell's director of client preloads, the mix and match of SUSE/Moblin's core package is built on top of the Moblin 2.1's 2.6.31 Linux kernel. Above that, most of the software is from SLED 11. Instead ofKDE 4.3, though, for the interface, it uses the Moblin Web-oriented interface. So, for example, to use Firefox for your Web browser, you'll get to it via the Moblin toolbar. The U135 is powered by a second-generation 1.66GHz Intel Atom 450 Pineview processor. It comes...
