SIMD Programming Manual for Linux and Windows

All modern PCs provide SIMD processing but there are no practical programming books telling you how to use it. Use of these techniques can allow programs to run 8 to 10 times faster than conventional programs on the same computer. The book enables high-level language programmers to make effective use of a technology that at present is known to and utilised only by a handful of developers. They could write graphics programs that were much faster as a result. This will be of interest to practitioners of games programming, image processing, medical image analysis, video processing etc.

This is the only book to address high level language programming of SIMD features of Pentium processors All modern PCs provide SIMD processing but there are no practical programming books telling you how to use it
