Itanium Allies Make Open Source Move

In the newest of a series of moves to try to impart momentum to Intel’s Itanium processor, allies backing the chip are funding work to improve a key programming tool. Some of the $10bn [EUR 8.36bn] in five years that members of the Itanium Solutions Alliance are spending on Itanium market and technology development will go to Itanium-specific improvements to the GCC. The Gelato Federation, an organisation dedicated to boosting Linux on Itanium computers, is overseeing the work, the allies said this week at the Intel Developer Forum in San Francisco.
