Sharky Extreme - PC - Hardware - Itanium Technology Guide

The Itanium is a new processor family and architecture, designed by Intel and Hewlett Packard, with the future of high-end server and workstation computing in mind. The Itanium is big, expensive, complex, and will come with massive internal resources. The Itanium is cutting-edge processor design. The Itanium will use an entirely new form of instruction set called EPIC, which has the potential of bringing unseen levels of parallelism inside a processor. Today, we are going to look at the technical side of the EPIC architecture and the Itanium processor.

Interestingly, I set my students an Itanium practical [52.225 | CAD Practical - Merced] almost three years ago. Needless to say those students have since graduated so many of the links on the submissions page are now broken. However, a number of students sent me their web pages and I have recorded them for prosperity at Index of /~duncan/cdrom/archives/ay1997/teaching/cad/practicals/ia64

I wonder if my old students will recall their practical work now that Itanium has become a reality?
