Adapteva joins the Kilocore Club with Epiphany-V

…

Adapteva, which was founded in 2008 by Andreas Olofsson, is one of the beneficiaries of the CRAFT program and used that investment and the help with the masks to crank up the number of cores on its Epiphany massively parallel chips from 64 cores on the Epiphany-IV to a whopping 1,024 cores on the Epiphany-V – and did so on the shoestring budget that DARPA mandated. Olofsson said that a mere five people worked on the Epiphany-V chip and that he did 80 percent of the work himself in adding 64-bit processing and addressing to the chip as well as scaling the cores up by 16X.
