Intel has announced that its chief executive Paul Otellini is going to retire from the company.

Mr Otellini was the fifth chief executive in Intel's 45-year history.

"I've been privileged to lead one of the world's greatest companies," he said in a statement.

The company will now begin the process of looking for his successor.
