Intel advertised its new CPU chip for PC and laptop computers in 1993 as the Intel Pentium processor. This chip was the fifth generation (586) evolved from the original 8086 chip, developed in 1976. The results of this 30-year lineage (e.g. 186, 286, 386, 486) have allowed Intel to dominate microcomputers ever since. Although Intel had originally intended the 8800 to be its third-generation CPU, the 8086 played that role by default in 1978. Constrained to be compatible with the 8080 family, it…

A SIMD intrinsic correlator library for GNSS software receivers
TLDR
The state-of-the-art application programming interface that provides SIMD capable methods for each of the components in a correlation operation, including the first of its kind parallelized code and carrier generation using lookup tables and SIMD instructions is presented.
The Ideal Versus the Real
TLDR
This survey covers key developments in the evolution of virtual machines and containers from the 1950s to today, with an emphasis on countering modern misperceptions with accurate historical details and providing a solid foundation for ongoing research into the future of secure isolation for multitenant infrastructures, such as cloud and container deployments.
