When there is talked about modern CPUs and GPUs the terms SIMD processor, Stream processor and Vector processor often pops up. I have been trying to figure out how these terms relate but its ...

Many high-performance DSP and general-purpose processors are equipped with SIMD (single-instruction, multiple data) hardware and instructions. SIMD enables processors to execute a single instruction ...

SIMD intrinsics aren’t evil; however, they are a last resort. The first three choices are always more maintainable for the future when they work.

Using SIMD in massively parallel chips is analogous to the typical use of SIMD within a single processor. Single-core processors with SIMD have multiple execution units that can operate in parallel, ...

Additionally, when compared with general-purpose processors, the reduced amount of control circuitry of a highly parallel SIMD processor reveals a flexibility gap.

Both the Intel Xeon processor and the Intel Xeon Phi coprocessor continue to increase in performance as each generation is developed. To gain maximum performance from these architectures, it is ...

Kyoto University Thinks Widening SIMD Will be Key to Performance Gains in New Intel Xeon Phi processor-based Cray System July 13, 2016 by staff ...

The wide SIMD processor architecture is configurable to handle 1024 8-×-8 MACs, 256 16-×-16 MACs, or dedicated 8-×-2 binary-neural-network (BNN) support. It can also handle 64 single-precision ...

Everything you need to know about Zen 4, socket AM5, and AMD’s newest chipsets Ryzen 7000 CPUs use a new platform—with plenty of changes.

The Grayskull architecture uses proprietary Tensix cores, with each core using a programmable single instruction multiple data (SIMD) processor, a high utilization packet processor, and five ...
