PB, the pursuit of thread-level parallelism (TLP) is growing over a concern that computer architects have already squeezed all of the instruction-level parallelism (ILP) possible. Intel, of course, will argue that there is still a lot of ILP left to exploit, while IBM and Compaq/Digital will argue the opposite.

I don't think anyone knows the real answer to this debate. But I do know that "TLP vs. ILP" is the new debate that will replace the old "CISC vs. RISC" debate.
