Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Kilocore, from Rapport Inc. and IBM, is a high-performance, low-power multi-core microprocessor that has 1,025 cores. It contains a single PowerPC processing core, and 1,024 eight-bit Processing Elements running at 125 MHz each, which can be dynamically reconfigured, connected by a shared interconnect. It allows high performance parallel processing. Rapport's first product to market is the KC256, with 256 8-bit processing elements. The KC256 started shipping in 2006. The elements are grouped in 16 "stripes" of 16 processing elements each, with each stripe able to be dedicated to a particular task.
