The Denver 2.0 CPU is a seven-way superscalar processor supporting the ARM v8 instruction set and implements an improved dynamic code optimization algorithm and additional low-power retention states for better energy efficiency. https://blogs.nvidia.com/blog/2016/08/22/parker-for-self-driving-cars/ https://blogs.nvidia.com/blog/2016/08/22/parker-for-self-dri...
