Intel and Web Technologies

INTEL CORPORATION 13 SSG System Software Division

Why is Intel involved with Web technologies?

• We believe in the transformative power of open, horizontal

technologies.

• Web workloads are demanding – we like that!
• Whatever the programming paradigm, language or workload, our job

is to make sure it runs best on Intel Architecture.

• When to use HTML5/CSS/JS vs. Java vs. native – confusing to our

customers and developers.

• Intel has one of the largest developer outreach programs in the world.
• We measure, analyze, try it ourselves, then aim to be a trustworthy

advisor on the important technical issues faced by developers.

Recent Intel Work in Web Technologies

• W3C: Added multi-channel support and otherwise influenced the Web Audio

specification.

• WebKit: Feature and performance for Touch, Canvas, WebGL, Web Socket, Web

Worker, File API and other subsystems.

• Chrome/Chromium: Helped Google whitelist almost all Intel GPUs
• Android: Android on IA, Chrome-for-Android on IA, HW-accelerated Android

emulator for IA

• Apache Cordova / PhoneGap: Cordova implementations for Tizen, Windows 7

then Windows 8.

• Tizen: HTML5 application API for smartphones, TVs and automotive devices

INTEL CORPORATION 15 SSG System Software Division

Intel Likes PhoneGap (and the Apache Cordova project)

• Cordova (among other things) is a great way to try new APIs for web

apps.

• Contributing Tizen OS implementation of Cordova.
• Ramping work on Cordova for Windows 7, then Windows 8.
• Memo to Intel groups that want to expose platform features.
• “If you can expose it through PhoneGap, then please do.”
• Intel sponsoring PhoneGap Day on Friday here in Portland!
• Our Cordova work is centered in Montpellier, France – stop by and

say “Bonjour”!
