Editor's Notes

  • #2 Created with Office 2013
  • #4 New Form Factor
  • #5 Hardware DifferentiatorsWelcome to “Introduction to Developing Ultrabook™ Applications.” During this presentation we will start with why Ultrabooks™ running Windows 8 is such a compelling platform for application developers. We will then show the Windows 8 application environment and talk about the difference between a desktop application and a Metro style application. Most of this presentation will focus on what it takes to develop a desktop application and we will examine the three options available to you: Windows Native - .NET– and help you decide which is the right option for your application. As part of this section, we will spend some time reviewing WinRT, which is a new set of APIs available to developers on Windows 8.Just to complete the picture we will talk a little bit about what it takes to develop a Metro style application. And then finish with a list of tools and resources you will find valuable as a developer.
  • #6 Intel® Quick Sync VideoIvy Bridge includes the GPU and the CPU on the same die. It’s based on the popular Sandy Bridge, we continue that technology and we’ve optimized to improve performance. Intel® Quick Sync Video makes fast work of creating, editing, syncing, and sharing your videos — at home and online. Intel® Quick Sync Video, built right into the 2nd generation Intel® Core™ processors, delivers breakthrough hardware acceleration that lets you complete in minutes what used to take hours. Create Blu-ray* discs, edit videos, convert video files for your portable media device, and convert videos for upload to your favorite social networking sites — all in a flash.IvyBridge has added a new video encode engine, which means that is now accelerates encoding and decoding video. The video transcoding engine and the GPU share the L3 cache..The hardware accelerated decode engine is improved from the current generation: the entire video pipeline is now decoded via fixed function units. 
  • #8 The Intel Atom Processor Z2760 “Clover Trail” allows for the thinnest, lightest tablets built on Intel® architecture -- as thin as 8.5mm and as light as 1 1/2 pounds. The technology also provides long battery life (over 10 hours2 of local HD video playback) and over 3 weeks of standby time. One-tap Near Field Communication (NFC) allows proximity pairing between the tablet and other NFC-enabled mobile devices. The technology package also includes support for an advanced HD camera (up to 8MP) as well as Wi-Fi*, 3G WWAN, and 4G LTE* WWAN.Key features and capabilities of the Intel Atom Processor Z2760 are summarized below:Intel® Atom™ Processor Z2760 (Formerly "Clover Trail")• High-Performance Dual-Core Processor – The Intel Atom processor Z2760 is a dual-core, four-thread, up to 1.80 GHz processor featuring Intel® Burst Technology and Intel® Hyper-Threading Technology.1• Intel® Burst Technology – Enables the processor to dynamically burst to higher performance, making it possible to provide on-demand, higher performance in small device form factors.• Intel Hyper-Threading Technology – Intel Hyper-Threading Technology provides performance and support for multi-threaded applications, helping to deliver increased performance and system responsiveness in today's multitasking environments by enabling the processor to execute two instruction threads in parallel.• System-on-Chip (SoC) Process Technology – The Intel Atom Processor Z2760 uses 32nm process technology with second-generation high-k metal gate transistors.• Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator – Integrated graphics with up to 533 MHz graphics core frequency and hardware acceleration support for 1080p video encode and decode.• Internal/External Display – Support for one internal MIPI-DSI or LVDS display in additional to one external HDMI* 1.3 display.• Integrated Memory Controller and LPDDR2 Support – An integrated 32-bit dual-channel memory controller offers fast memory read/write performance through efficient pre-fetching algorithms, low latency and high memory bandwidth. The Intel Atom Processor Z2760 includes support for LPDDR2, 800 MT/s data rates, up to 2 GB.• Storage – Embedded Multimedia Card 4.41 (eMMC 4.41).• Power Management – Uses low power idle standby states (S0ix) to support Microsoft* Connected Standby.• Camera and Image Signal Processor (ISP) – Integrated ISP with support for a primary HD camera (up to 8MP) and secondary camera (up to 2.1MP).• Security – Secure Boot, with firmware-based Intel Platform Trust Technology (fTPM).• I/Os – GPIOs, USB 2.0, I2C, UART, SPI, SDIO 2.0, MIPI* DSI and MIPI* CSI.• Compact Co-PoP Package – A compact 14mm x 14mm design with support for LPDDR2 customer-owned package on package.• Platform Sensors – Support for GPS, accelerometer / compass combination, hardware sensor hub, ALS, SARS, and proximity and thermal sensors.(1. Available on select Intel® Atom™ and Intel® Core™ processors. Requires an Intel® HT Technology-enabled system. Consult your PC manufacturer. Performance will vary depending on the specific hardware and software used. For more information including details on which processors support HT Technology, visit intel.com/info/hyperthreading.)(2. Battery life claim of over 10 hours of local HD playback is based on power measurements on a 10" Intel reference design at 200 nits with WiFi on and a 30 Whr battery.)
