Intel Shake-Up to Focus on Mobile, New Devices

From DailyTech: Intel's new CEO has only been at the helm for a week, but he's determined to turn things around with a company shake-up.

Brian Krzanich, who became Intel's CEO on May 16 after 30 years with the company, sent an internal memo to employees Monday regarding Intel's new focus and changes made within the company.

The memo said that Intel's major product groups (the PC client group, mobile communications and data center) will now report directly to Krzanich instead of Intel Architecture group chief Dadi Perlmutter.

Mike Bell will supervise Intel's "new devices" group," which is a brand-new group that will focus on emerging product trends.

Renee James (who was previously the head of software) will now oversee the company's global manufacturing operations and all aspects of security technology. She will also lead corporate strategy and planning.

Doug Fisher, a senior executive from Intel's software group, will take James' place as software head.

Hermann Eul, who previously ran Intel's mobile communications group with Bell, will now completely take over that position.
