The vector length is a big part of that, and that is the tricky part. What are we going to do? ARM’s conclusion is that there is no preferred vector length for the architecture. Instead, SVE makes the ...

ARM debuted its new 64-bit microarchitecture today and announced the upcoming launch of a new set of Cortex processors, due in 2014. The two new chips, dubbed the Cortex-A53 and Cortex-A57, are ...

The FFmpeg team recently announced a massive speed increase thanks to some newly patched code. The open-source project is now ...

The full 256-bit registers are referenced in assembly using the names YMM0-YMM15, as illustrated in Figure 6. In 32-bit mode, only registers YMM0-YMM7 are available. Figure 6. Intel® AVX Register ...

Andes’ fifth generation AndeStar™ architecture adopted the RISC-V as the base. Its V5 RISC-V CPU families range from tiny 32-bit cores to advanced 64-bit cores with DSP, FPU, Vector, Linux, ...

A pair of computer science researchers have come up with an algorithm that can take a low-resolution piece of pixel art and upscale it accurately to vector graphics. Imagine seeing SNES games ...

A new whitepaper from NEC X delves into the world of unstructured data and explores how vector processors and their optimization software can help solve the challenges of wrangling the ever-growing ...

“Vector extension and Bit Manipulation will further expand the applications of RISC-V based SoC and are in the Andes RISC-V CPU core roadmap. We are glad to see Imperas take the lead to support them ...
