Alfred The Intel Intern(Does that ‘Alfred’ Guy Ever Do Anything Around Here?)

- H. Alfred Hotelling

- http://resume.alfredh.org

- Microsoft PowerPoint (duh)

- Microcode for IXP1200 and IXP2XXX

- Microengine C for IXP1200 and IXP2XXX

- IXP2XXX Architecture

- Microsoft Access

- SQL to extract only the data we need

- Microsoft Excel and the Visual Basic Editor to view data we need in the format we need across multiple worksheets

What has Alfred the Intern learned at Intel?

What has Alfred the Intern done for Intel?

I spent the first two weeks simply studying who does what and what everything does- Marketing documents and information on IXA software vendors

- Information on switch fabric companies

- IXP2XXX architecture

Software Pipelining (Functional and Context)

Next-Neighbor Registers

Local Memory

Content Addressable Memory and Inter-thread Signaling for Mutual Exclusion from Critical Sections

Folding

Playing with the Simulator

What has Alfred the Intern done for Intel? “Grover Hill”

What has Alfred the Intern done for Intel?“Grover Hill”

What has Alfred the Intern done for Intel?Visual Basic Macros to Extract the Data from Grover Hill

Quick retrieval, convenient format

Executes in under 90 seconds

Users have to simply open the Excel file to get the data they need ( Let me demonstrate. The macros may finish extracting and presenting the data before we finish this slide. )

Data Independence: Changing the data in Grover Hill does not necessitate changing the code in the Visual Basic macros

The data on each vendor gets their own worksheet

Original execution time: 13 minutes. Thanks to advice from Robert Hunter, execution time declined 88 percent.

Have the Visual Basic macros presented the data by the time we have reached this line?

What has Alfred the Intern done for Intel?You have seen what Alfred has done. How does it help Intel?

What does Intel want NPD to do? Acquire design wins! How did Alfred the Intern help NPD acquire design wins?

Grover Hill allows anyone in NPD to: Get a list of ISVs that implement any protocol you click Get a list of dates these ISVs plan to release these implementations Find which ISVs support a particular RFC Find the market segments on which an ISV is targeting

The Visual Basic macros allows anyone in NPD to: Create separate worksheets for ISVs to edit the data Update presentations with current data in 90 seconds

Bottom Line: NPD needs this information to persuade customers to buy our silicon.

What does the future hold for Alfred the Intel Intern?

Working for Intel?

Competing against Intel?

The largest advantage of the current economy is an opportunity for Intel: no competition to hire Alfred the Intern as a permanent employee.
