ARM's new designs focus on AI and Machine Learning

At Computex this year, chipmakers are looking to bring their processors up to date with support for modern technologies - machine learning, artificial intelligence, augmented reality and virtual reality. ARM, the British semiconductor company (now owned by Softbank) creates reference ARM designs that other OEM's follow. The company will announce its latest ARM Cortex-A75 processor design, which the company claims will provide 22 per cent improvement in performance over the previous Cortex-A73 design. Alongside the A75 design, ARM will also be unveiling the Cortex-A55 design which is expected to provide the highest power efficiency in mid-range processors. In addition, the company will also unveil the Mali-G72 graphics processor which will be a 25 per cent improvement over the erstwhile Mali-G71.
