Sony Toshiba IBM Center of Competence for the Cell Processor

Sony Toshiba IBM Center of Competence for the Cell Processor

The Sony Toshiba IBM Center of Competence for the Cell Processor is the first dedicated to the promotion and development of Sony Toshiba IBM's Cell microprocessor, an eight-core multiprocessor designed using principles of parallellism and memory latency. The center is part of the Georgia Institute of Technology's College of Computing and is headed by David A. Bader.

According to IBM, the center is intended to "to build a community ofprogrammers and broaden industry support for the Cell BE processor."
