Title: Multicore and Many Core Integrated Circuits
Abstract: Multicore ICs and systems are the future of computing and networking. Trend of multicore ICs is increasing due to many limitations in unicore systems including clock speed, heating issues and large size. A few years back the concept of multicore ICs was not a burning topic because developers were increasing the clock speed using single core. Then dual core processors were introduced and it was considered to be a revolutionary step in ICs' world. They were considered to be very fast processors and within a short time the concept of multicore ICs was introduced. But now these days the trend is shifting from multi core to many core integrated circuits due to a lot of reasons that prefer many core circuits over multicore circuits. However the difference is not a big one it lies just in the number of processing units. In this report the concept of multicore and many-core ICs and processors is discussed in detail with some of their advantages as well as disadvantages. Memory sharing in multi core system, Clock speed trends and protocols of memory sharing are also the part of this paper.
