SIMD Programming Manual for Linux and Windows
SIMD Programming Manual for Linux and Windows is an English-language technical book about programming with SIMD instruction-set extensions. Its supplied description discusses parallel operations on multiple data values and their use in multimedia applications, while the 2004 publication date makes it a period-specific reference rather than a guide to current processors.
At a glance
- Covers the Single Instruction-stream Multiple Data-stream model and processor instruction-set extensions.
- The supplied description frames SIMD around carrying out the same mathematical operation on multiple operands, including multimedia applications.
