I-Federal Trade Commission yafaka isicelo sokuvimba ukutholwa kweNvidia kwezikhali

Ezinyangeni ezimbalwa ezedlule sabelana lapha kubhulogi izindaba mayelana Ukuthengwa kwe-Arm kukaNvidia kuka-$ 40.000 billion nokuthi ngaleso sikhathi izodlula ekubuyekezweni ukuze kugunyazwe ukuthengwa lokho, kodwa kubonakala sengathi lokhu kungase kungenzeki okwamanje, njengoba I-Federal Trade Commission imemezele ukuthi izothatha izinyathelo zomthetho ukuvimbela ukuhlanganiswa ukuthi kwenzeke, besaba ukuthi izinkampani ezihlanganisiwe ngeke zicindezele ukuncintisana kwezobuchwepheshe besizukulwane esilandelayo.

Isidingo iza ngemuva kophenyo lwe-FTC mayelana nesivumelwano kulandela izikhalazo ezivela ku-Google, Microsoft kanye neQualcomm ngokushesha ngemva kokumenyezelwa kokuhlanganiswa. I-FTC ikhathazekile ngokuthi i-Nvidia ingase ithole ukufinyelela olwazini oluyimfihlo lwabanikazi bamalayisense be-Arm asebevele baqhudelana no-Nvidia, kanye nokuyekisa i-Arm ekusebenzeni emikhiqizweni emisha nemiklamo engangqubuzana nezithakazelo zikaNvidia ngokusizakala izimbangi.

I-Nvidia ingumkhiqizi omkhulu kakhulu wama-graphic processors Futhi inweba ukusetshenziswa kwengxenye yegeyimu ibe yizindawo ezintsha ezinjengokucubungula ubuhlakani bokwenziwa ezikhungweni zedatha nezimoto ezizimele, futhi ukuhlanganisa amandla ayo namayunithi okucubungula aphakathi nendawo aklanywe nge-Arm kungayivumela ukuthi ibambezeleke noma ihambe phambili. kanye Namadivayisi Amancane Athuthukile, ngokusho kukaHans Mosesmann, umhlaziyi we-Rosenblatt Securities.

Ngo-April, uhulumeni waseBrithani wanquma ukungenelela ngenxa yezizathu zokuphepha kwezwe. UNobhala Wezwe Wedijithali u-Oliver Dowden "ukhiphe Isaziso Sentshisekelo Yomphakathi Sokungenelela (PIIN) mayelana nokuthengiswa okuhlongozwayo kwe-Arm ku-NVIDIA."

Ngalokhu, i-Federal Trade Commission ifake icala lokuvimba ukutholwa Kwezikhali nguNvidia:

“Isivumelwano esime mpo esihlongozwayo sizonikeza enye yezinkampani ezinkulu zama-chip amandla okulawula ubuchwepheshe bekhompyutha nemiklamo. ezithenjwa izinkampani ezincintisanayo ukuthi zithuthukise awazo ama-chips aqhudelanayo. Isikhalazo se-FTC sisola ukuthi inkampani ehlanganisiwe izoba nezindlela nezisusa zokuvimbela ubuchwepheshe obusha besizukulwane esilandelayo, okuhlanganisa lobo obusetshenziswa ukuphatha izikhungo zedatha nezinhlelo zokusiza abashayeli ezimotweni.

"I-FTC iqala icala lokuvimbela ukuhlanganiswa kwe-chip ye-semiconductor enkulu kunazo zonke emlandweni ukuze kuvinjelwe i-chip conglomerate ekuvimbeleni ipayipi emisha yobuchwepheshe besizukulwane esilandelayo," kusho u-Holly Vedova, umqondisi wehhovisi lokuncintisana e-FTC. FTC, esitatimendeni. “Ubuchwepheshe bakusasa buncike ekulondolozweni kwezimakethe zanamuhla ezithuthukile nezinokuncintisana. Lesi sivumelwano esihlongozwayo sizohlanekezela ama-incentives e-Arm ezimakethe zama-chip futhi sivumele inkampani ehlanganisiwe ukuthi ibukele phansi ngokungafanele izimbangi zika-Nvidia. Isikhalazo se-FTC kufanele sithumele isignali eqinile yokuthi sizothatha isinyathelo ngenkani ukuze sivikele izimakethe zethu zengqalasizinda ezibucayi ekuhlanganisweni okuphambene nomthetho okunemiphumela efinyelela kude nelimazayo ekusunguleni okusha okuzayo. «

Njengoba ubuchwepheshe be-Arm buyinto ebalulekile eyenza ukuncintisana phakathi kwe-Nvidia nezimbangi zayo ezimakethe ezihlukahlukene, Icala lisola ukuthi ukuhlanganiswa okuhlongozwayo kuzonikeza iNvidia ikhono nesikhuthazo sokusebenzisa ukulawula kwayo. balobu buchwepheshe ukubukela phansi izimbangi zabo, ngaleyo ndlela kuncishiswe ukuncintisana futhi ekugcineni kuholele ekuncipheni kwekhwalithi yomkhiqizo, ukuncipha kokuqamba okusha, amanani aphezulu, kanye nezinketho ezimbalwa, okulimaza izigidi zabantu baseMelika abazuza emikhiqizweni ye-Arm.

Ngokwesikhalo, ukutholwa kuzolimaza ukuncintisana ezimakethe zomhlaba ezintathu lapho uNvidia eqhudelana khona esebenzisa imikhiqizo esekwe ku-Arm:

• izinga eliphezulu lezinhlelo zosizo lomshayeli ezimotweni zabagibeli. Lezi zinhlelo zihlinzeka ngemisebenzi yokushayela okusizwa ngekhompuyutha njengokushintshwa komzila ozenzakalelayo, ukugcinwa komzila, ukungena nokuphuma kuthelawayeka, nokugwema ukushayisana.
• I-DPU SmartNIC, okuyimikhiqizo yokuxhumana ethuthukisiwe esetshenziselwa ukukhulisa ukuphepha nokusebenza kahle kwamaseva esikhungo sedatha
• Amaphrosesa asekelwe engalweni abahlinzeki besevisi yekhompuyutha yamafu. Le mikhiqizo emisha nesafufusa ithuthukisa ubuchwepheshe be-Arm ukuze ihlangabezane nokusebenza, ukonga amandla kanye nezidingo zokwenza ngokwezifiso zezikhungo zedatha zesimanje ezihlinzeka ngamasevisi wekhompuyutha yamafu.

Icala liphinde lithi ukutholwa kuzolimaza ukuncintisana ngokunikeza uNvidia ukufinyelela olwazini. isabele ngokuncintisana kubanikazi bamalayisensi be-Arm, ezinye zazo eziqhudelana ne-Nvidia, futhi okungenzeka zinciphise isisusa se-Arm sokuphishekela izinto ezintsha ezicatshangwa ukuthi zingqubuzana nezintshisakalo zebhizinisi lika-Nvidia.

Namuhla, abanikazi bamalayisense be-Arm, okuhlanganisa nabaqhudelana nabo bakwa-Nvidia, babelana njalo ngemininingwane ebucayi yezimbangi ne-Arm. I-Licensees Trust Arm for Development Assistance, ukuklama, ukuhlola, ukulungisa iphutha, ukuxazulula izinkinga, ukugcinwa nokuthuthukiswa kwemikhiqizo yayo, ngokusho kwesikhalazo. Abanikazi bamalayisense be-Arm babelana ngolwazi lwabo olubucayi lokuncintisana ne-Arm ngenxa yokuthi i-Arm inguzakwethu ongathathi hlangothi, hhayi umenzi we-chip oyimbangi. Ukutholwa kungenzeka kuphumele ekulahlekelweni okubucayi kokuthenjwa kwe-Arm kanye ne-ecosystem yayo, ngokusho kwesikhalazo.

Ukuthola kungenzeka futhi kulimaza ukuncintisana kokusungula izinto ezintsha ngokususa izinto ezintsha u-Arm ebezingaziphishekela ngaphandle kokungqubuzana nezintshisekelo zikaNvidia. Inkampani ehlanganisiwe izoba nesikhuthazo esincane sokuthuthukisa noma ukuvula izici ezintsha noma izinto ezintsha ezinenzuzo uma uNvidia enquma ukuthi kungenzeka zilimaze uNvidia, ngokusho kwesikhalazo.
