Intel Integrated Performance Primitives 6.0
Performance
Advanced tuning techniques for software and hardware make it easy to get maximum performance out of your applications.
- Media applications get the performance headroom to add features and deliver more high-quality video and audio streams to more users.
- Communications applications get the performance headroom to provide more differentiated services to clients.
- Entertainment applications deliver more vivid, interactive user experiences.
These techniques include:
- Microarchitecture-based tuning:
o Pre-fetching and cache blocking
o Avoiding data and trace cache misses
o Avoiding branch mispredictions
- Exploiting the instruction set architecture:
o Intel MMX technology
o Streaming SIMD Extensions (SSE), SSE2, SSE3
o Intel Extended Memory 64 Technology (Intel EM64T)
- Using Multi-Core and Hyper-Threading Technologies
