Intel Corp. said on Wednesday that it would begin shipments of its experimental 48-core microprocessors dubbed single-chip cloud computer (SSC) late in the second quarter of the year. The systems-based on the central processing units (CPUs) will be sent to academic institutions.

“Limited quantities of the processor will be sent primarily to academic institutions,” said Sean Koehl, technology evangelist with Intel Labs, during an event in New York on Wednesday, reports IDG News Service.

According to Intel, the 48-core chip operates at the clock-speed comparable to Intel Atom microprocessors, which means that the frequency of the microprocessors is in the range between 1.60GHz and 1.83GHz.
