  microarchitecture Text english
One of the primary tasks of microarchitectural objects / buildings when implanted in old building substance is to connect new and old, traditional and modern elements in a total architectural and material dramaturgy, to bring the existing material to life in a non-invasive, and both financially and aesthetically economic way.
Microarchitectural approaches to thinking and solving problems - whether in the form of installations, objects or entire buildings - are always holistically oriented and seek synergetic relationships to the surrounding macroarchitecture as a healthy pluralism.
The devil is in the detail, microarchitecture uses the word micro (also implying by its absence the macro/context, that is ever present) to remind us that architecture is, among other things, also the sum of small parts.

 inside the Intel(R) NetBurst(TM) microarchitecture   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
The Intel® NetBurst™ microarchitecture is the foundation for the Intel® Xeon™ processor and Intel® Pentium® 4 processor.
The result was a microarchitecture that significantly increased frequency capabilities to well above 40 percent, a rate higher than that of the P6 microarchitecture (on the same manufacturing process), while maintaining an average IPC within approximately 10 to 20 percent of the P6 microarchitecture.
One of the key pipelines, the branch prediction/recovery pipeline, is implemented with a 20-stage pipeline in the Intel NetBurst microarchitecture, compared to the equivalent pipeline in the P6 microarchitecture, which was implemented with a 10-stage pipeline.

 Intel Core: A Next-Generation Microarchitecture   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
The answer is… yes, in the sense that new Intel Core microarchitecture is derived from the same base architecture that's in the Core Duo and Core Solo chips.
However, the Core Duo and Core Solo processors don't use the new Intel Core microarchitecture themselves; they are based on the Centrino platform, and are new members of the Pentium M processor family.
With the Intel Core microarchitecture, the processors have new algorithms that help them determine when it's useful to preload data—and to quickly detect when that preloaded data has been changed, and must be reloaded into the cache.

 [No title]
Over a year ago at the Fall 2005 Intel Developer Forum, Intel formally announced that they would be dropping the Pentium 4's Netburst microarchitecture in favor of a brand new, more power-efficient microarchitecture that would carry the company's entire x86 product line, from laptops up through Xeon servers, into the next decade.
Because the Pentium Pro's microarchitecture was the successor to the P5, it was dubbed P6 by Intel.
The P6 was one of the most commercially successful microarchitectures of all time, and it went through a number of changes as it evolved from the Pentium Pro to the Pentium III.

 Bone microarchitecture can significantly deteriorate in one year
In the same study Actonel® (risedronate sodium tablets) was shown to protect the trabecular microarchitecture of bone in early postmenopausal women at one year and to increase BMD.
Protection of bone microarchitecture may play an important role in bone health." Recent publications suggest that BMD increases explain less than one-third of the observed fracture reduction for a given therapy.
In the study reported today, iliac crest biopsies collected from patients were analyzed by 3D microcomputed tomography for microarchitecture parameters, including bone volume, trabecular number, and trabecular separation.
