Description for SIMD Programming Manual for Linux and Windows
Hardback. Intended as a programmer's introduction to the use of SIMD on PCs. This book presents the underlying technology of SIMD processing on PCs and looks at tools to exploit this including the Intel SIMD library and the Parallel Processing Language Vector Pascal. It is for programmers in the rapidly growing area of games and multi-media entertainment. Series: Springer Professional Computing. Num Pages: 352 pages, 19 black & white tables, biography. BIC Classification: ULD; ULL; UYFP. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (U) Tertiary Education (US: College). Dimension: 254 x 178 x 22. Weight in Grams: 840.
A number of widely used contemporary processors have instruction-set extensions for improved performance in multi-media applications. The aim is to allow operations to proceed on multiple pixels each clock cycle. Such instruction-sets have been incorporated both in specialist DSPchips such as the Texas C62xx (Texas Instruments, 1998) and in general purpose CPU chips like the Intel IA32 (Intel, 2000) or the AMD K6 (Advanced Micro Devices, 1999). These instruction-set extensions are typically based on the Single Instruc tion-stream Multiple Data-stream (SIMD) model in which a single instruction causes the same mathematical operation to be carried out on several operands, or ...
