Intel's Xeon

Intel has declared that its third-generation Xeon alphabetic character, codenamed Knights Hill, can deploy on 10nm technology and have the second iteration of Intel’s Omni-Path cloth. Knights Hill is sort of a rejoinder — Intel’s Knights Landing that is predicated on 14nm technology won’t launch till the summer of 2015, which implies Knights Hill is probably going a 2017 (or later) half.

Currently, Intel’s highest-end MIC (Many Integrated Core) is Knights Corner, a 22nm style with fifty or additional cores and a style that derives from Intel’s classic Pentium (P54C), albeit with 512-bit AVX units and fully completely different memory design. Knights landing are designed on 14nm and deploy identical Silvermont design that powers Intel’s Bay path. During a major departure, however, that future iteration of the core can support four threads per central processor.
