But that doesn't imply the end of special-purpose accelerators. Today we use accelerators for specific, well-defined functions like encryption or error correction in conjunction with processor clusters. I think a completely 'clean' cluster of processors without specialized hardware would not survive in the market. |
I think we will take the lion's share. |
That's worth much more than any single design win. |
The data available today emphasizes the multifold strengths of our alliance strategy resulting into a leading position towards time-to-market, figure-of-merits, and manufacturing flexibility by pooling significant R&D resources as also exploiting a huge amount of intellectual capital. |
We are on a good track to reach the market share that we need. |
