Intel SSE4.2
Intel® SSE4.2 is a new subset of Intel® SSE4 instructions that was introduced in the 45nm Next Generation Intel® Core™ i7 processor family (Nehalem). These techniques are used to enhance Intel® XML Software performance through tighter integration with the AVX platform.

Intel® AVX (Intel® Advanced Vector Extensions) is a 256 bit instruction set extension to SSE and is designed for applications that are floating point intensive.

The enhancement in Intel® AVX allow for improved performance due to wider vectors, new extensible syntax, and rich functionality including the ability to better manage, rearrange and sort data.

Intel announced Intel® AVX at the Spring Intel Developer Forum in April 2008 to share the plans and start working with global developers prior to the 2010 production readiness goals. Intel® AVX will be a part of the platforms ranging from notebooks to servers.
