Intel Corporation has showed how the evolving capabilities of mobile computing are attracting new users and creating new opportunities for developers from new audio and video experiences to closed-lid access to e-mail.
The new mobile products, platform innovations and industry enabling programmes are helping to grow both the overall size of the notebook market segment and the number of notebooks sold as a percentage of total personal computer shipments, said Anand Chandrasekher, Intel vice president and general manager of Mobile Platforms Group.
Speaking at the Intel Developer Forum, he outlined Intel's plans to enhance Intel 'Centrino mobile technology' and the Intel Pentium-M processor.
He further said that the new concept mobile personal computers with features designed to reshape mobile computing for a wide variety of users.
"Last year, the enterprise customers had repeatedly told us that a laptop based on Intel Centrino mobile technology is the best laptop available," said Chandrasekhar.
"With compelling new mobile platform capabilities and the tremendous industry momentum around Wi-Fi and Intel Centrino mobile technology, we envision a rise in new and innovative applications for mobile computing in both the enterprise and the home."
Intel plans product roadmap for 2004 will further advance the mobile computing experience with even higher performance and more wireless connectivity choices, and by enabling longer battery life in thin and light designs.
In the second quarter this year, Intel plans to introduce a higher-performing Intel Pentium-M processor (code-named "Dothan") and in the second half, Intel plans to update all the elements of Intel Centrino mobile technology with the "Sonoma" platform introduction.
The Vice President and General Manager, Desktop Platforms Group, Bill Siu showed how a variety of Intel-based computers - from clients to back-end servers - enable enterprises to best handle the unique computing requirements for all-sized businesses.
In his keynotes at the Intel Developer Forum, Bill introduced the concept of the "digital office," Intel's vision to improve productivity and flexibility in a more secure and well-managed computing environment.
Intel is uniquely positioned to deliver the platform capabilities and building blocks to address key corporate computing needs, including collaboration, mobility, security and manageability.
"The digital office is all about bringing value to businesses and IT departments by addressing the evolving needs of both," Bill Siu said adding that "Intel is paving the way for corporations to make IT a strategic asset by bringing products and technologies to support this vision."
Siu illustrated several cross-platform technologies that Intel is developing and bringing to market to support its vision of the digital office.
The Personal Computers based on the Intel Pentium-4 processor supporting Hyper-Threading (HT) Technology, built with Intel's industry-leading 90-nanometer (NM) process technology (formerly code-named Prescott), and the company's next-generation chipset, code-named Grantsdale, form the foundation of the digital office.
The HT technology delivers performance benefits targeted at the way professionals use their PCs, running demanding applications simultaneously.
In the future, HT Technology will be followed by multi-threading technology, involving new processor designs featuring dual cores (essentially two processors on a single piece of silicon).
In addition to technology enhancements, the new desktop form factors are also on the horizon. Intel plans to debut "Balanced Technology Extended," or BTX, as a new desktop form factor specification that defines motherboard sizes and layouts.
The BTX will enable PC designers, for the first time, to use a standard form factor to fit new, high performance features for the digital office into aggressively compact systems.
In the areas of secure computing Intel plans to combine HT Technology, a new technology called "No Execute" (NX) memory protection and the code-named LaGrande technology (LT) to enable improved security.
