"E.T. International, Inc. (ETI), a provider of system software
solutions for hybrid and many-core hardware architectures, today
announced that Adapteva has selected ETI’s SWARM (SWift Adaptive
Runtime Machine) software solution for its Epiphany multicore
processor, the first ever architecture capable of scaling to
thousands of parallel processors on a single chip. ETI's SWARM
programming environment enables application development on the
Epiphany processing architecture, and is part of the company's
unique many-core expertise offerings that include design,
development, and other custom programming services for advanced
HPC and embedded computing systems."

"The current implementation of Epiphany is as an accelerator for DSP
tasks such as speech recognition and imaging processing. It packs
16 custom floating-point cores in a 65-nm chip that can deliver up
to 50-GFLOPS while consuming less than a watt, according to Adapteva
(Lexington, Mass.). The claim for Epiphany is that it is more power
efficient than competitive chips and that the architecture scales
to many-core."
