new node system/ license system necessary in future?
Posted: Tue May 25, 2010 3:23 pm
If I read through that article 48 Core Chip I think the license system for Maxwell has to change in future. Again due to CPU development.
Especially the mentioning of each core running its own OS and being a node gets me thinking of how many licenses we'd have to buy just to have it running on one complete cpu - using all the 48 available cores. - Or do they count as 1 CPU? Then I'd like to have one - now.
Any remarks from you to this? Even though this is future talk - this will be not too far away considering the computer development cycles...
