First 1,000-processor chip: Thought to be the fastest chip designed in a uni lab (sciencedaily.com)

Is this related to this CPU from ~2006: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kilocore ? (at least the name is the same and IBM is involved again). After searching a little bit it seems they only use the same name because of the 1000 cores (kilo). The previous chip seems to be related to carnegie mellon.
