The performance of SIMD processors is often limited by the time it takes to transfer data between the centralized control unit and the parallel processor array. This is especially...
SIMD extensions are the most common technique used in current processors for multimedia computing. In order to obtain more performance for emerging applications SIMD extensions ne...
Compiler technology for multimedia extensions must effectively utilize not only the SIMD compute engines but also the various levels of the memory hierarchy: superword registers,...
