Introduction 1.2 Table 1. security of the system. See the Intel® 64 and IA-32 Architecture Software Developer's Manual for more detailed information. • Intel® 64 Architecture- An enhancement to the Intel IA-32 architecture, allowing the processor to execute operating systems and applications written to take advantage of the Intel 64 architecture. Further details on Intel 64 architecture and programming model are in the Intel Extended Memory 64 Technology Software Developer Guide at http://developer.intel.com/technology/64bitextensions/. • Enhanced Intel® SpeedStep® Technology - Enhanced Intel SpeedStep Technology allows trade-offs to be made between performance and power consumptions, based on processor utilization. This may lower average power consumption (in conjunction with OS support). • Intel® Virtualization Technology (Intel® VT) - A set of hardware enhancements to Intel server and client platforms that can improve virtualization solutions. Intel VT provides a foundation for widely-deployed virtualization solutions and enables more robust hardware assisted virtualization solutions. More information is at: http://www.intel.com/technology/virtualization/ • Platform Environment Control Interface (PECI) - A proprietary one-wire bus interface that provides a communication channel between the processor and chipset components to external monitoring devices.
