I have always suspected that Gelsinger is an idiot. The following tirade settles it for me: infoworld.com Gelsinger: We're suggesting that some of the core technology breakthroughs that we're working on will allow us to begin ushering in the next step beyond the mid-term debates of Java and .Net compute models. Let's imagine that I could put sensors in every agricultural environment for the future, and now those sensors start to intelligently communicate back to nodes that tell us to turn on water, to turn on heaters for frost prevention, that give indications of all of the other environments around them. Every node can talk to every [other] node. We think it's going to usher in entirely new models of networks and communication and it's not even clear that you want a heavyweight language like Java or .Net running on these kind of very lightweight environments.Those are areas that we think some of these breakthroughs are allowing us to begin to research. We're not suggesting we have the answer of what that needs to be. What we are saying is that just due to the core technologies that we're driving down at the silicon level, we are going to deliver technologies that transform our view of computing and communications as we know it today. We have this view that machines today are reactive to human initiation. Web services start to make them a little bit proactive because a computer can initiate an action with another computer, so they collectively take some action. But for the most part, everything is still reactive to human intervention. As you go to sensor environments, you're actually going to get computers that are smarter or not dependent upon human initiation. So now you can start developing policies for these networks. You start developing agent models for these networks that deliver services to people, as opposed to people being forced to request those services.
