Don't Miss Out on Intel® Advanced Vector Extensions

In 2010, Intel will be introducing a new instruction set called Intel® Advanced Vector Extensions (AVX), a 256 bit extension to Streaming SIMD Extensions (SSE) designed for applications that are floating point intensive. Intel® AVX will unleash the power of CPU and improve software performance, a key component in Intel's platforms ranging from notebooks to servers. Download the Intel® Software Development Emulator and review the newly updated version of the Intel® AVX Programming Reference. Read on ›

NEW! Featured MID Application of the Month

Debuting this month in the Mobility Community, this section will showcase applications being developed for Mobile Internet Devices (MIDs) today. Each article quickly describes the application, then covers technical challenges developers are encountering as they develop, port and/or optimize for this new and evolving form factor. Check out what fring*, a social networking application, experienced during development and porting to MOBLIN recently. Read on ›

Best guide to multi-core programming for embedded systems!

Order the book "Software Development for Embedded Multi-core Systems: A Practical Guide Using Embedded Intel® Architecture," by Intel engineer Max Domeika. This book provides comprehensive coverage of critical issues for multi-core employment within embedded systems including the Threading Development Cycle, with discussions of analysis, design, development, debugging, and performance tuning of threaded applications. Software development techniques engendering optimal mobility and energy efficiency are highlighted through multiple case studies and provide practical "how-to" advice on implementing the latest multi-core processors. Read on ›

Technical Articles Available on Multi-Core

Download "Efficient Filtering Using Threads on Multi-Core Processors" to learn about filtering using multi-core processors through the exploration of memory issues and timing. This article also provides problem examples, techniques and solutions. Need more information about multi-core memory issues? Download "Understanding and Avoiding Memory Issues with Multi-cores" to understand how contention and sharing with respect to memory locations can severely reduce the speedup gained from programming in parallel and how to avert access issues by correctly decomposing the problem. Read on ›
