![]() ![]() ![]() By 1984, inline compilers made their way into the market providing increased speed ups. However, in 1982, the speed-up in floating-point-intensive applications was only a factor of 10 as the initial software developed by Microway and Hauppauge continued to call floating point libraries to do computations instead of placing inline x87 instructions inline with the 8088's instructions that allowed the 8088 to drive the 8087 directly. The 80-bit Intel 8087 math coprocessor ran a factor of 50 faster than the 8/16-bit 8088 CPU that the IBM PC software came with. Starting in 1983, the company followed Microway, the company that a year earlier provided the software needed by scientists and engineers to modify the IBM PC Fortran compiler so that it could transparently employ Intel 8087 coprocessors. Hauppauge was co-founded by Kenneth Plotkin and Kenneth Aupperle, and became incorporated in 1982. ![]() 2.4 High-Definition Personal Video Recorder. ![]()
