[SIGCIS-Members] Survey of microprocessing platforms

[Jean-François Blanchette]

Dear colleagues,

I am looking for an article/book chapter that would cover the evolution of microprocessing families/platforms either since the beginning of the industry or from a more recent date --- looking at design features, technical strategies, market segmentation, industry alliances, things of that sort, individually or in combination.  

I have articles from the Intel Technology Magazine that describe their own particular strategies, but I am looking for something industry-wide. I also have various articles about the future of microprocessor design, e.g.,

but no historical overview.

If anyone has any pointers, I'd be most grateful.
Jean-François
