Research has been ongoing at Sun Labs to increase the speed of systems
that are made of hundreds of chips. The results were presented recently
at the Custom Integrated Circuits Conference. Ivan E. Sutherland, a Sun
vice president and research fellow, Robert J. Drost and Robert D.
Hopkins authored a paper on their results of sending data between
chips.
David Yen, Sun executive VP of processor and network products, talked
at a meeting in South Africa about Sun's advantages in chip
multithreading (CMT) technology.
The Sun FastEthernet PCI Adapter has been EOL'd. The replacement is
Sun's GigaSwift UTP adapter, which has higher performance and more
features. With the EOL of the SunSwift PCI Adapter, the replacement
option is the Sun Dual Fast Ethernet and Dual SCSI II ((X)2222A), which
has four ports on a single, full-size PCI card.
