Intel Fellow, Intel Architecture Group
Larrabee Chief Architect
INTEL CORPORATION
Doug Carmean is an Intel Fellow and Larrabee chief architect in the Visual Computing Group for the Intel Architecture Group at Intel Corporation.
He is responsible for creating the vision and concept for a fully programmable graphics pipeline based on IA processors that supports highly visual and parallel workloads. Carmean led the team that founded a new group at Intel to define, build and productize products from an architecture that targets the high-end discrete graphics business. He is responsible for growing the development of Larrabee from an early concept to a core piece of Intel's graphics strategy. Carmean enlisted and included key industry software developers in Larrabee's definition to ensure a compelling product.
Since joining Intel in 1989, he has held several key roles and provided leadership in Intel's microprocessor architecture development and product roadmap. As Nehalem's first chief architect, a next-generation x86 flagship processor, he led the team during the early phases of architecture definition. Prior to this position, he was a principal architect for the Pentium 4 processor where he completed the memory cluster and power architecture definition including algorithms, structures and overall functionality.
Carmean holds more than 20 patents and many pending in processor architecture and implementation, memory subsystems and low power design. He has published more than a dozen technical papers and he has received the Intel Achievement Award three times.
Carmean earned his bachelor's degree in electrical engineering from Oregon State University in 1985.
