Massively Multiplayer Online games, or MMOs, is a hotbed of development and Lego Universe, a new online game that’s based on the toy building bricks franchise is scheduled for release in 2010. Developed by a San Mateo, Calif., firm called Gazillion Entertainment, the game is designed so that even a 5-year-old and his grandfather can play together. The goal is to make virtual world games that anyone can play. “I think there is a big opportunity for mass-market MMOs, especially when they are connected to recognized brands,” said Ted Pollak, senior analyst with Jon Peddie Research in San Francisco. But, he warned, “the quality of the game must be top-notch, which is not an easy undertaking.”

Photonic AI Processors Report
(Buyer will receive $500 coupon, good for 90 days, toward any other JPR AIP report)
Jon Peddie Research’s Photonic AI Processors report is a supply-side report; it covers the seven companies building photonic compute processors.
The Photonic AI Processors report defines photonic AI processors and how they are used. It
outlines the two distinct product categories that exist: photonic compute processors, where
light performs the arithmetic, and photonic interconnects, where light moves data between
conventional chips and replaces copper wires.
The report also contains information about the companies in this segment and their
technology and products.
While the companies covered in the main body of this report focus on classical photonic AI acceleration (matrix multiplication, inference, HPC), a distinct set of players is building photonic quantum computers that use single photons as qubits and linear optical elements to implement quantum gates and entanglement.
