		Thus, an important difference between Dothan and Banias microarchitectures is the modified Sofware Prefetch algorithm in the former one.
		Banias has this shortcoming too: it is characterised by a 1372-MB/sec full maximal real copying bandwidth (64.3 percent of the theoretical limit).
		It was used in versions 2.5 and later, while Banias data were received from version 2.4 and so, it's impossible to estimate Hardware Prefetch efficiency in it using the proposed method.

	Real World Technologies - Low Power Processors: Intel Banias and Via (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Unlike previous mobile Intel processors which are largely successful desktop processors tweaked with various power saving features and voltage scaling to achieve lower power performance characteristics, Banias has been designed specifically for the mobile market, and the average power consumption targetted is less than one watt.
		Banias (pronounced as BAN-NEEAS, not BAA-NEE-AS) incorporates various architectural enhancements such as a new Branch Prediction unit, new micro-op fusion techniques along with a 400 MHz processor bus.
		The Banias processor is designed to operate along with the Odem chipset and the "Calexico" wireless LAN chip.

	The Tech Report - Comments on Banias benchmarked
		Banias looks nifty, don't get me wrong, but the P4 is the better product for places where power and don't matter as much as they do in portables.
		Banias is what the P3 should have become, if Intel wasn't set on winning the MHz race at any costs (performance included).
		Banias is based on the P6-core, but heavily refined and modified to allow higher performance at the same clockspeed (better branchpredictor, more cache, SSE2 [IIRC], µOP fusion), higher attainable clockspeed for a given process (tweaked implementation) and lower power consumption (clock gating, improved SpeedStep).

		Banias is a design which Intel has publicly said will be designed from the ground up, but it is not unusual for the company to use this approach when designing new microprocessors.
		Intel wants to develop a low-power Banias design which will allow it to capture more of the so-called "server blade" market, which it believes will be popular with corporations during the course of the next several years.
		Banias is being prepared for release at some point in 2003 but there are still all sorts of questions hanging over Intel's mobile strategy next year, with notebooks and blade servers slated to use the Pentium III-M, while other notebooks will use Intel's Pentium 4 technology.

		Banias spots these instructions and very early on hands them over to a special hardware unit dedicated to stack management.
		Buffer circuits are traditionally one of the major power hogs in a circuit: with Banias, those that aren't being used at any particular moment are turned off, and all dynamically adjust themselves to use as little power as possible in whatever circuit they're being used by learning the electrical conditions on the bus.

	Inside the Labs - CNET reviews
		Banias, the code name for Intel's new mobile platform, is slated to debut in the first half of 2003.
		MacDonald claims that, with Banias, "frequency is actually a secondary consideration." The Banias CPU will feature a new technique for handling instructions and code, called micro ops fusion, which combines instructions for faster execution instead of using raw speed to push instructions through quickly, resulting in a more efficient CPU that consumes less power.
		The Banias CPU is not meant to be a one-size-fits-all approach, so the typical design considerations for larger form factors running at faster frequencies--such as servers and high-end desktops--need not be factored into the core CPU design.

		When Intel decided to build Banias, its engineers' first challenge was how to boost mobile PC performance without increasing power consumption, said Mooly Eden, general manager of Intel's Israel Design Center.
		The processor part of Banias is designed to achieve better mobile chip performance through improved branch prediction, larger cache and data buffering, streaming SIMD Extensions 2, and improved chip sets (code-named Odem and Montera), Eden said.
		While Crusoe will continue to compete with Banias in the area of power consumption, AMD's mobile chips (based on its desktop processors) will have to compete on performance alone since they lack serious low-power capabilities.

	X-bit labs - Hardware news - Intel Banias Additional Details.
		The Banias processor is intended for use in mobile computers only and its architecture is totally different from that of the Pentium 4 processor.
		In case we assume that SRAM cell size of Banias and Pentium 4-M is the same and keeping in mind that 512KB of L2 cache in Northwood takes up about 20% of the core-size, we can conclude that L2 of 1MB in Banias will occupy more than 50% of its die-size.
		The advantage of Banias architecture is even more impressive if we remember that core voltage of the next-generation mobile processor is 1.35V compared to 1.3V of Pentium 4-M. I also want to attract additional attention to the economical mode of Banias CPU.
