- Additional information
- This paper has won an award from Wiley for being in the top 10% most downloaded articles in the 12 months following online publication. It presents the first ever rigorous results comparing production quality Arm-based server CPUs with the current state of the art. The results were the first to show that these new Arm-based CPUs were performance competitive, while delivering significant cost/performance benefits. The research led to a close collaboration with Arm, resulting in £150k funding for a new Arm Centre of Excellence in Bristol, as well as close collaborations with Marvell (the CPU provider), and Cray/HPE.
