Efficient Computer proposes the processor Fabric, a device capable of achieving amazing performance with extremely low consumption. Placing on market of a CPU with such characteristicscertainly corresponds to an ambitious plan, a plan that has been echoed worldwide.
It is no coincidence that Efficient Computer, a start-up until recently unknown to most, has significantly increased its notoriety, thanks to this product which promises to compete with the giants of the sector. The notoriety has risen, in particular, in the last few days, from the moment in which the start-ups has decided to reveal its intentions to the market, also revealing particular characteristics of the architecture of the new processor. But let's see the details.
The efficiency announced by Efficient Computer with Fabric
Fabric's architecture is highly innovative, a strength which aims to make a difference. In terms of performance, according to what was reported by the designers of the new device, the latter would be able to compete directly with current market standards, but with notable differences for the consumer.
Firstly, as announced, theenergy efficiency it should be about 100 times higher to the current standard. This will be reflected positively in terms of consumption, in particular for the most hardcore gamers and for those who use the PC for demanding tasks. applications professional, or in any case with rather prolonged use throughout the day. The Fabric processor is not afraid of high workloads, and, given this, uses only a small fraction of the energy required by current processors.
Specifically, the efficiency increased by 100 times, should be compared to integrated Von Neumann processors. On the other hand, the one announced is capable of making a difference in terms of the market economy of the product. The latter should be far cheaper than GPUs currently on the market. In short, there would be every possible prerequisite for an authentic technological revolution in the sector.
Efficient Computer and how Fabric works
What do we know about how this new one works technological marvel? According to what was revealed by Efficient Computer, the chip uses its layout to carry out various operations simultaneously and in parallel. The channels for parallel processing are connected by a highly laborious network, thanks to which a synergy is achieved that requires little, on the energy side.
Furthermore, nothing was left to chance, not even in the programming area. The new Fabric processor, in fact, supports all major programming languages, including C, C+, but also TensorFlow, as well as several Rust applications. This translates into the opportunity for all application development companies to rewrite the code in use with few necessary changes. Thus creating specific software versions for Fabric with little effort.
Efficient Computer also stated how the compiler of the new CPU was designed hand in hand with its hardware.
The Fabric application
According to the parent company's plans, Fabric should find asectoral application really very interesting. It would primarily include those sectors that can benefit most from the least expensive processing capacity.
The intentions of Efficient Computer are therefore aimed at the management of healthcare devices, satellites, the defense and security sectors, and the monitoring of infrastructures. At the moment, further detailed descriptions of Fabric were not disclosed for reasons of confidentialitybut, in addition to his technical potentialthere are those too economical.
Obtaining a from the aforementioned start-up financing by Eclipse Ventures, for an amount equal to 16 million Of dollars, in fact, suggests the possibility of immediately launching new chips on the market, and also of continuing along the path of innovation.
