Multiplying things by two and putting them on a roadmap is easy, even if it does take a lot of courage to do that. Actually making that 2X performance boost happen is, in a lot of cases in the ...
Specifications for two new interconnect technologies were released yesterday by the Peripheral Component Interconnect-Special Interest Group (PCI-SIG), the group said in a press release (download PDF) ...
Over the past few years, high-end PCs have come to be associated with PCI Express 5.0, the infrastructure that connects graphics cards and SSDs. That’s close to changing, as the PCI Special Interest ...
If the datacenter had been taken over by InfiniBand, as was originally intended back in the late 1990s, then PCI-Express peripheral buses and certainly PCI-Express switching – and maybe even Ethernet ...
There are significant differences between the PCI Express architecture and its future cousin Advanced Switching Interconnect (ASI), but contrary to popular belief, the ability to build robust ...
With the advent of high-speed point-to-point serial interconnect standards like PCI Express, data transfer rates have improved dramatically by several orders of magnitude. For example, PCI Express can ...
PCI Express is absorbing functionality from other common interfaces like SAS and SATA, reducing the number of interfaces that systems will require. Ethernet has already hit that point, pushing out ...
