News release on C\Net : Intel to accelerate Web
By Jeff Pelline
September 24, 1997, 5:50 p.m. PT

Intel is expected to announce a new technology tomorrow that will speed up the delivery of graphically rich Web pages, according to industry sources.

The company will perform market trials with Sprint, GlobalCenter, and Netcom for the technology, suggesting that the software would run on their servers, the sources said.

A common complaint among Netizens is that it takes too long to download Web pages. Many analysts see the problem as major impediment to the Net's growth.

So-called Web accelerators are among the hottest tools on the Internet. But these products must be added to user's personal computers.

The product would represent a new business line for Intel, although it fits with the company's strategy to build sideline businesses that support PC chip sales.

They typically rely on technologies such as compression, encapsulation, read-ahead browsing, and intelligent caching to speed up the process of downloading Web pages in real time. Peak Technologies peak-media.com , for example, offers software that works with Web browsers to increase the speed of downloading new sites and improving modem performance.

Intel declined comment. (The company is an investor in CNET: The Computer Network.)

The way I read it this thing from Intel is on the server side (so it does not compete with Peak) and if it speeds delivery of web pages then it will only help PeakJet go faster and faster.
