Francois Piednoel’s Summary

I am an expert in performance tuning, Instruction set design.
I am an Intel spoke person, and I present the new processors to the press, during detailled press briefing.
I am working on Larrabee, and Core i7 fine tunning, very exciting times!
I am one of the main leader of the V8 projects and Skulltrail (D5400XS)
I participate into Intel's strategic decisions for high end PC.
I am part of the team who created the Pentium 4 Extreme Edition, Core 2 Extreme and I am now leading the specification of many of the Extreme line of product.
My last archivement is the QX9775, an insane quad core running at 4Ghz air cooled that runs in a Dual processor platform, overclocked ...

I am lucky enough to meet the leaders of Intel process technologies, Intel Main processor architects, and give them inputs, and learn from them everyday.

I have 2 Intel Archivement Awards, the last one being given in 2008.

I am known to stand behind my opinion that I usually build on data, I know how to accept a different point of view.

I never forget all the people working behind the scene to make all of those processors happen, Thanks to all of them!

  I was working at the call support line for the "13" in France, answering customer support line, as my Dad was driving the maintenance for Normandie. I programmed on my spare time, a PC that was sitting between the consumer database, and the telco commuter to automate the line test. sending a message to this PC with the phone number into the message was triggering a voltage, courant and capacity test on this metalic connection to the customer phone. this is one of the best hack I ever wrote, it went over every safety protocols and increased dramatically the prevention of disconnection of the french land line phones.
