This lecture will give some insight into how the Microprocessor Design Group approaches the daunting task of the design of a lead microprocessor as complex as the Pentium IV while under very specific schedule constraints. For a historical perspective, we will start with a quick comparison of the complexity/performance of the Willamette and Prescott (Pentium IV) class of microprocessor with the generations before the Pentium IV (Bob was a member of the design teams for a number of lead microprocessor projects including the 486DX2, Pentium Pr.
