Several  teams  across  the Intel India Development Centre's Mobility Group have  made  key  contributions to this industry-leading mobile platform.The Mobile Platforms Group worked on the following platform development areas: Intel® Turbo Memory software validation: The entire Intel Turbo Memory validation  was  performed  by  the  India  team.  With Turbo memory,

consumers  have  up  to 20% faster boot time and 2X faster application  load.The  team  also  created some of the software utilities and tools that help in enabling certain features of the processor.

 

Customer  reference board designand battery life analysis: The team at Bangalore  also worked on the customer reference board design. It also developed  the  Customer Reference Board (CRB) and was responsible for its  deployment.  The  activities  under  this effort included design, validation,  distribution  and  customer  support for the board. Their work  also resulted in an increase in the battery life with the use of the new platform Crestline  chipset:  The  new  platform  uses  the Intel® 965 chipset, codenamed  Crestline.  This was the first mobile chipset program which team  owned  for  the  getting  the  chipset into production. The team completely  owned  and  executed  Crestline  circuits  for  the mobile display  interface.  The  Chipset  Group worked on key elements of the chipset  software:  drivers  for  Microsoft*  Windows  Vista Operating System and graphics and display drivers.

 

Customer enablement: Last but not the least, the Mobility Group worked with  customers  in  APAC  and  Japan for enablement. From a technical marketing  support  and  hardware application engineering perspective, the  team  supported APAC and Japan customers towards launch readiness through technical collateral development and its publication.

 

Currently,  our  assumption  is  that  no other company in India undertakes development  at  this  level  of  complexity  and  such breadth of platform development across hardware and software to meet world markets.

 

IIDC has been steadily contributing to the development of Intel's products.

IIDC has also made significant  contributions to Quad-Core Intel® Xeon® 5300 and Intel Core? 2 Extreme quad-core processor families design and validation.
