Inside the Intel Itanium 2 Processor: An Itanium Processor Family Member for Balanced Performance Over a Wide Range of Applications

Overview This paper describes the Itanium 2 processor, the second product in the Itanium Processor Family (IPF). It is a joint effort between Hewlett- Packard and Intel. The Itanium 2 processor release is expected to create a significant inflection point in the computer industry moving from multiple unique proprietary RISC architectures to a new 21st century high performance architecture which, with the backing of many computer companies, will become an industry standard. HP and Intel entered into a partnership in 1994 to develop this new processor architecture.
