Mula & Intel Investors - Twelve Companies Demo ITanium Workstation software packages at SIGGRAPH. It seems they like the Floating Point Performance of the new ITanium for their applications ! "These workstation applications will benefit from the Itanium processor's world-class floating point performance, scalability and large memory addressability in performing complex 3-D modeling, animation, scene rendering, video editing and special effects. " Paul {=================================} biz.yahoo.com Thursday July 27, 11:02 am Eastern Time Company Press Release New Itanium Processor-Based Workstation Applications Previewed by Leading Developers NEW ORLEANS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 27, 2000--Twelve leading digital content creation (DCC) software developers today previewed new workstation applications designed to run on the forthcoming Intel® Itanium(TM) processor. The new applications are representative of a broad range of innovative hardware and software offerings that are being completed as the industry prepares for Itanium processor-based pilot system deployments in the fourth quarter of 2000. Companies demonstrating new Itanium processor-based software at SIGGRAPH include Arete Image Software Digimation, Cebas, Discreet, Messiah Project, NewTek, Next Limit, Reyes Infografica, Right Hemisphere, Softimage, TGS and Volume Graphics. These workstation applications will benefit from the Itanium processor's world-class floating point performance, scalability and large memory addressability in performing complex 3-D modeling, animation, scene rendering, video editing and special effects. ``Itanium processor-based workstations will be the creative engine for designers who need uncompromised performance for developing digital content targeting the Internet, broadcast TV, film and other professional media,'' said Dennis Goo, digital media solutions director at Intel Corporation. ``Workstation platforms based on the Itanium processor will enable users to meet ever more stringent time-to-market pressures while creating dazzling special effects, complex data visualizations, and in-depth analysis.'' Designed to address the requirements of high-end servers and workstations, the Itanium processor is the first in a family of IA-64 processors from Intel, and the most significant new development in Intel microprocessor architecture since the 32-bit 386 processor was introduced in 1985. The Itanium processor's floating point performance, 64-bit addressability, large cache memory and high bandwidth bus are well suited to the high performance workstations used in digital content creation, mechanical design automation, financial modeling, and scientific and technical computing applications. In addition, server applications such as business intelligence, enterprise resource planning (ERP) and customer relationship management will benefit from Itanium processor features that deliver enhanced reliability, leading security performance, higher application performance, and scalability to manage system growth. Intel, the world's largest chip maker, is also a leading manufacturer of computer, networking and communications products. Additional information about Intel is available at www.intel.com/pressroom.
