Did startup Flow Computing just make CPUs 100x faster? Here’s the white paper and FAQs
Read for yourself.
Flow Computing is making a tough to believe claim: it says it can 100x the performance of any CPU by shifting work to a special parallel processing unit (PPU) inside or outside the chip. And, it claims, it can double the performance of any existing computing code overnight, even if programmers don’t lift a finger to optimize for its new tech. At this point, Flow hasn’t validated its claims on genuine silicon but, rather, an FPGA board and some simulations while it works on a design for a PPU core and a compiler that it can license to other firms.
