Is low-level programming a sin or a virtue? It depends. When programming for using vector processing on a modern processor, ideally I’d write some code in my favorite language and it would run ...

In the last few years a number of start-up companies have announced massively parallel processors for embedded DSP applications. With their arrays of Aspencore network ...

Two approaches for parallel-processing DSP cores are in the mainstream today: the very long instruction word (VLIW) and single-instruction, multiple-data (SIMD) architectures. The capabilities of both ...

These DSP cores, which IBM calls "synergistic processing elements" (SPE), but I'm going to call "SIMD processing elements ... wringing more instruction-level parallelism out of the code stream ...

The authors address this problem by proposing a 3-step framework, which aims for integrated data locality, multi-core parallelism and SIMD execution of programs. Catch up on the latest tech ...

explicit data (DLP) level and thread (TLP) level parallelism as well as combinatorial logic. This article elaborates on the use of the C2R compiler for implementing a 2-way LIW/SIMD hybrid accelerator ...

they took over almost all SIMD vector tasks, but one thing that they’re not good at is being a general-purpose parallel computer. This really ticked [Raph Levien] off and it inspired him to ...

In today’s automobiles, manufacturers competitively blend performance and custom features with cutting-edge safety technology.

With the introduction of Intel Parallel Studio XE, instructions for utilizing the vector extensions have been enhanced and new instructions have been added. Applications in diverse domains such as ...
