I wonder if the article meant that IBM had worked on the POWER architecture for over 30 years? IBM did work on the eCLipz Project [0][1], combining / sharing tech from IBM Power/pseries, AS/400/iseries, and Zseries. This was around 2005-ish. I assume that collaboration has continued, but I don't know if that counts as 'based on ...'. "The z10 processor was co-developed with and shares many design traits with the POWER6 processor, such as fabrication technology, logic design, execution unit, floating-point units, bus technology (GX bus) and pipeline design style, i.e., a high frequency, low latency, deep (14 stages in the z10), in-order pipeline. However, the processors are quite dissimilar in other respects, such as cache hierarchy and coherency, SMP topology and protocol, and chip organization. The different ISAs result in very different cores – there are 894 unique z10 instructions, 75% of which are implemented entirely in hardware. The z/Architecture is a CISC architecture, backwards compatible to the IBM System/360 architecture from the 1960s.
