A Whole Lotta Cores

In the summer of 2007, Tilera released its TILE64 chip, containing 64 cores (64 "tiles"), a high-speed interconnect, plus controllers for memory, Ethernet, PCI Express and other I/O (see TILE64). Each of the 64 cores has its own L1 and L2 caches and a switch that connects it to the mesh. (Image courtesy of Tilera Corporation, www.tilera.com)
