12. Generation Intel® Core™ vPro™ Processor Family • Add on to the i7 and i5 processors. • You can also help protect your organization’s sensitive data with optional Intel® Anti-Theft Technology (Intel® AT). • Intel® Anti-Theft Technology (Intel® AT) for Laptop Security • http://www.intel.com/technology/anti-theft/index.htm

13. Level 1 Execution Trace Cache • In addition to the 8KB data cache, the processors includes an Execution Trace Cache that stores up to 12 K decoded micro-ops in the order of program execution. • This increases performance by removing the decoder from the main execution loop and makes more efficient usage of the cache storage space since instructions that are branched around are not stored. • As aresult, a high volume of instructions are delivered to the processor's execution units andthe overall time required to recover from erroneous branch predictions is decreased.

14. Intel® Atom™ Processor • Built for simple affordable netbooks, nettops, and maybe phones • 22x22mm form factor • 60% smaller then notebook CPUs, 70% smaller then desktop processors. • Video: Intel Next Generation Atom Platform Z550
