Review & Specification:
The Intel Itanium 2 processor, the second in a family of processors based on the Intel Itanium architecture, is designed to address the needs of high-performance servers and workstations. The Intel Itanium architecture goes beyond RISC and CISC approaches by employing Explicitly Parallel Instruction Computing (EPIC), which pairs extensive processing resources with intelligent compilers that enable parallel execution explicit to the processor. Its large internal resources combine with predication and speculation to enable optimization for high-performance applications running on multiple operating systems, including versions of Microsoft Windows, HP-UX, and Linux. The Intel Itanium 2 processor is designed to support very large scale systems, including those employing thousands of processors, to provide the processing power and performance headroom for the most demanding enterprise and technical computing applications. SMBus compatibility and comprehensive reliability, availability and serviceability (RAS) features make Itanium 2-based systems ideal for applications requiring high uptime. For high performance servers and workstations, the Intel Itanium 2 processor offers outstanding performance and reliability for today's applications and the scalability to address the growing business-critical and data-intensive computing needs of tomorrow.
