AVX10: A big improvement for x64 vectorisation but it’s not ARM SVE

Intel Logo

What is AVX10? It is a unification of current AVX (Advanced Vector eXtension) instruction sets (ISA) into a new version-based standard that is width-independent (i.e. applies to any width from 128, 256 and 512-bit). This allows different CPU cores (e.g. Atom, Core, Xeon, etc.) to use the same instruction set … Read more…

What Intel needs is SVE-like variable width SIMD-AVX to solve hybrid problem

What are AVX, AVX512? AVX or “Advanced Vector eXtensions” is a family of SIMD instructions on x86/x64 that have expanded the old SSE/2 (Streaming SIMD Extensions) that themselves have extended/expanded the original SIMD x86 instruction set: MMX (Multi-Media eXtensions). AVX2 increases the width to 256-bit while AVX512 increases the width … Read more…
