Intel ® Corporation is supporting select universities who are involved in
education surrounding advancing the move of Multi-core architecture.
Specifically, Intel is looking to fund research and curriculum that will be
centered on Intel Multi-core architecture (Intel® Multi-core). Intel Corporation
initiated Multi-core research and Curriculum Development program focused on
Intel Multi-core architecture (Intel Multi-core university program).
Intel India looks to: Advance the state-of-the-art in Multi-core technology research based on Intel Architectures in Indian universities.
Stimulate new usage models on Multi-core technology based architecture or platform.
Create the conduits for interactions and collaborations on Multi-core research between the India university professors-students-researchers and Intel technologists-engineers-researchers.
Educate and grow the talent base of Multi-core technology in India.
Intel invites proposals for developing course curriculum and teaching course(s) around multi-core technology for post graduate and undergraduate students of computer science and engineering.
The reach and impact of the Intel Multi-core University Program witnessed a gradual transformation from predominantly focusing on premier institutes, to moving towards emerging institutes. This has resulted in a growing emphasis on the creation of centres of excellence. Having IIT Kanpur and IISC develop a world-class curriculum and in an endeavor to proliferate multi-core curriculum adoption in India, Intel has reached out to 1500+ faculty members from 300 institutes.
