Researchers tout self-repairing multi-core processors

The race for ever-tinier computer chips is on, and barring physical limitations, doesn’t seem to be slowing anytime soon — but with chips, as with humans, the smaller they get, the more fragile they become. A team of researchers called CRISP (Cutting edge Reconfigurable ICs for Stream Processing) is working to create a self-repairing multi-core processor that would allow on-chip components to keep on shrinking, while combating concerns over accelerated degradation . Basically, the team’s conceptualized a chip that allows for 100 percent functionality, even with faulty components. With multiple cores sharing tasks, and a run-time resource manager doling out those tasks, the chip can continue to degrade without ever compromising its intended functions — a process CRISP calls graceful degradation. Once one core fails, the on-chip manager assigns its task to another core, continuing on in this fashion for the complete lifetime of the chip. Of course the technology is still in its infancy, but if CRISP’s chips comes to fruition, we could see virtually indestructible processors that make 14nm look bulky by comparison.

Genre: Alternative Title: This is Why We Fight Artist: The Decemberists I’ve been a fan of The Decemberists for a long time, but I have to admit that even though I’ve developed pretty high expectations, their new album, The King is Dead (buy it here ) is astonishingly good by anyone’s measure. Although this probably is my favorite song — “This is Why We Fight” could be an anthem for everyone in Wisconsin — it’s not by a lot: the album is superbly written and performed from start to finish. Congrats to Colin and the gang. There’s a reason this album entered the charts at No. 1. Please note: This video autoloops with an advertisement in the middle. You’ll have to click stop to stop it.
