effectively on large one-dimensional arrays of data called vectors. This is in contrast to scalar processors, whose instructions operate on single data items only...

unit of the processor and in multi-core processors each core is independent and can access the same memory concurrently. Multi-core processors have brought...

larger register. Processors that have the ability to execute single instructions on multiple data are called vector processors. A processor often contains...

Vector Packet Processing (VPP) platform is an extensible, open-source framework, which offers the functionality of network switches or routers. Vector...

Knights Landing co-processor, which shipped in 2016. In conventional processors, AVX-512 was introduced with Skylake server and HEDT processors in 2017. AVX...

mechanism. Pipelined vector processors are characterized by pipelined functional units that accept a sequential stream of array or vector elements, such that...

on commodity processors such as the Intel i860 XP became more powerful, and interest in SIMD waned. The current era of SIMD processors grew out of the...

one-dimensional array of words, whose indices are their addresses. Processors, especially vector processors, are often optimized for array operations. Arrays are useful...

Scalar processors are a class of computer processors that process only one data item at a time. Typical data items include integers and floating point...

name implies, vector processors deal with multiple pieces of data in the context of one instruction. This contrasts with scalar processors, which deal with...

using custom ECL-based processors implementing the VAX instruction set architecture (ISA). Equipped with optional vector processors, they were marketed into...

Cray-1 would demarcate the ASC (and STAR-100) as first-generation vector processors, with the Cray-1 belonging in the second. TI began as a division of...

is the vector equivalent of register indirect addressing, with gather involving indexed reads, and scatter, indexed writes. Vector processors (and some...

Manycore processors are special kinds of multi-core processors designed for a high degree of parallel processing, containing numerous simpler, independent...

vector for PowerPC/Power ISA processors is at an effective address of 0x00000100 for 32-bit processors and 0x0000000000000100 for 64-bit processors....

as in the case of C++AMP. This programming paradigm maps well to vector processors: there is an assumption that each invocation of a kernel within a...

or not executed, based on whether that predicate is true or false. Vector processors, some SIMD ISAs (such as AVX2 and AVX-512) and GPUs in general make...

accelerator boards with Cell processors. In the fall of 2006, IBM released the QS20 blade module using double Cell BE processors for tremendous performance...

chaining is a technique used in computer architecture in which scalar and vector registers generate interim results which can be used immediately, without...

to entirely different processors and then recombines the results. The ILLIAC's design was finalized in 1966 with 256 processors and offer speed up to...
