Getting familiar with 64-bit technology
sponsored by Intel Corporation

While factors such as increased memory needs and the emergence of virtualization technologies have helped boost the popularity of 64-bit, there are still many companies that haven't made the migration. Those unfamiliar with 64-bit technology have plenty of questions that need answered before making the move.

  • What are the issues?
  • How should I rate the pros and cons?
  • Most importantly, what does 64-bit really mean?

In this webcast, systems software engineer Gary Olsen provides a detailed introduction to 64-bit technology. Here you'll learn about the key memory issues involved with 64-bit, as well as the decision points to be aware of when looking at X64, X86 and IA64 architectures.

Other key topics covered include:

  • The 32-bit and 64-bit memory models
  • X64 vs. IA64 for applications - Is more always better?
  • "Killer Apps" for 64-bit
  • Why 32-bit can sometimes outperform 64-bit
