Intel To Unveil Next-Generation CPUs
 
Intel is preparing a significant change to its computer chip technology, one that emphasises power efficiency and multitasking. The change, cited by Intel as 'next-generation architecture,' involves alterations to the circuit design of its microprocessors, which it currently sells under the Pentium brand name.

The chipmaker says it will provide details of the new technology later this month at the Intel Developer Forum (IDF), a gathering of technology developers. It also says the new architecture will allow for energy-efficient chips that can be used in sleeker desktops, laptops and servers.

It is likely that the technology will be based on the company's Pentium M part, a processor designed for laptop computers. The Pentium M processor is a neat processor for its efficiency, and many predict it could become a successor to the current line of power-hungry Pentium 4 desktop chips.

Intel's soon-to-be-released PC chips will be structurally different, but you can continue to run software packages like Microsoft Windows and the like. IDF is used by Intel to disseminate a wide range of information, including details on its processor roadmaps, updating its plans for communications chips, such as flash memory, and showing off some of its research projects.
