REX COMPUTING

Founded in 2013, REX Computing is a fabless semiconductor company developing a new processor architecture solving major problems in power efficiency and programability. The 256-core Neo processor will be the first chip to reach over 50 GFLOPs per watt of double precision processing efficiency, bringing capabilities traditionally restricted to large supercomputers and data centers into low power and embedded application spaces... REX Computing was founded in 2013 by Thomas Sohmers and Paul Sebexen following their selection as Thiel Fellows by Silicon Valley investor and philanthropist Peter Thiel. Sohmers started REX to break through barriers in power efficiency and programmability of large-scale computer systems. REX's Neo architecture is the first solution solving these problems plaguing all areas of computing by targeting the key area contributing to power usage in processors: the memory system. Processors typically require 40 times more energy to exchange data with local memory..
