Micron Technology is one of the world's leading providers of advanced semiconductor solutions. The company could potentially double its global market share with the purchase of failed Japanese chip maker Elpida Memory. Micron has offered more than $2.5 billion to purchase Elpida, and has offered to keep Elpida's 2 main factories open and would guarantee jobs for the companies employees.
MIPS Technologies, a leading provider of industry-standard processor architectures and cores for home entertainment, networking, mobile and embedded applications, announced that the latest official release of the Android Native Development Kit (NDK) includes full support for the MIPS architecture. With Release 8 of the Android NDK now available from Google, natively developed Android applications can be easily brought to MIPS-Based devices.
