Another top Intel executive is leaving the company.
This time it's Kim Stevenson, promoted just last August to be chief operating officer of Intel's largest business unit.
I doubt we are THAT lucky :sHopefully Francois Piednoel is shown the door as well.
Another top level Intel executive quits. I think Intel is not a very desirable place to work nowadays. Looks like canard pc article about Intel is slowly coming true. I think there are going to be a lot more layoffs over the next couple of years.
Hopefully Francois Piednoel is shown the door as well.

Charming :\
Francois is just a "benchmark engineer". I think he just sits and runs benchmarks on computer systems all work day. He's almost like a comic relief in a movie.
You will be part of HPC system architecture and pathfinding team developing leading edge HPC technologies. Responsibilities include simulation and analytic modeling of parallel applications, and studying how proposed new CPU architecture and network features impact application performance and power consumption.
HPC Workloads: understanding workload behavior including instruction mixes, memory footprint and cache behavior, floating point and vector characteristics, multithreading and distributed memory characteristics including (but not limited to) MPI, OpenMP and emerging programming models.
Simulation: using several different simulators, including Asim-based microarchitectural simulators, and Sniper-based multicore simulators, Intel’s SDE software development emulator, and others. Analyzing simulator output including stats files, pipe traces, and other output. Preparing simulator input including trace files, execution state snapshots, binary executables and their inputs and setup scripts.
Performance and Power Analysis: Preparing simulation result data for presentation. Analyzing a variety of simulation and analytic data, and correlating results from different tools and simulators.
That's not what a performance engineer does. Not even close.
Here is a job listing at Intel for an HPC performance architect:
If what he says on Twitter is even half serious, maybe he has less clue of what he's doing than he thinks he does.
Can you explain further?
At latest q2 next year.When is their ceo quitting.
When is their ceo quitting.
Nope. Even a bod can tell numbers from actual performance.The only way BK will end up, uh, "deciding to spend more time with his family" is if Intel's financial performance basically tanks and the BoD determines that it's pretty much his fault. Under BK, Intel's financials have been fine, so there's little incentive to find somebody else.

Look at BK. Its not only about competences for a new market situation and the need for new strategic partnership and the profile to make them. He is just not comfortable in this ceo position.
When 10 process node is delayed and lacking and this should be his expertice he will be held responsible. Like Dirk Meyers of bd failure. It will just be a bad excuse. He is a good man. Just the wrong place at the wrong time imo.
Amd is going to unleash graphene on intel and enter the matrix.At latest q2 next year.
I dont think he is the right man....ehh woman. But its no easy task either.
Go look at 7nm cost. Amd can share it with the rest of the world.
Intel should beat amd now. When the wsa runs out and euv 5 nm is at full steam its not going to get easy.
With the red or blue pill?Amd is going to unleash graphene on intel and enter the matrix.
