“With its new Core microarchitecture not even out of diapers, Intel started talking about Tera-Scale Computing, an architecture that will be far more massively parallel than today’s—and even tomorrow’s—systems.”
—Roger L. Kay, eWeek, March 10, 2006

The Forum Keynotes are where you learn about breakthrough Intel technology, where Intel is allocating resources, and discover opportunities for alignment with future industry standards.

During the last IDF Forum Keynotes, Intel unveiled Intel® Core™ microarchitecture as the foundation for their next desktop, mobile, and server processors. Participants also experienced the first public viewing of a running Intel quad-core processor slated to ship in early 2007.

At Fall 2006 IDF, Intel senior leaders will deliver details and insights on energy-efficient performance, advancements in capabilities per watt, and software threading, as well as the latest information on Intel developments in platform, software, architecture, and silicon. What technology will drive your future innovations? Find out in the keynotes.

The complete list of Forum Keynote presenters and topics will be announced soon. Visit this page often for complete details.
