Intel Investors - Intel Promotes University Training for IXA Telecommuications Architecture. Intel will be funding several universities to train engineering students with the new IXA Intel Internet Exchange Architecture for temecommunications. "Intel Corp. is setting up a fund with seven different universities to co-develop applications for its new communications-IC architecture. The fund, the amount of which was not disclosed, will help train the next wave of engineers working with the crown jewels of Intel'scommunications-IC strategy -- the Internet Exchange Architecture (IXA), according to Mark Christensen, vice president and general manager of Intel's Network Communications Group. IXA consists of chip-level building blocks and software tools built around a common interface. It includes the company's 1,000-mips network-processor, which embeds six separate 166-MHz MPUs inside a StrongArm RISC chip.
