AVX-512

In this article, we will discuss Intel's Advanced Vector Extensions 512 (AVX-512), which is an instruction set that was created to accelerate computational performance in areas such as artificial intelligence/deep learning.

Computer Architecture

Complex Instruction Set Computer (CISC) architecture explained

CISC Complex Instruction Set Computer architecture focuses on reducing the number of instructions per program It has emphasis on hardware design, has multi clock complex instructions, memory to memory instructions, high cycles per second, small code size and uses transistors for storing instructions

Computer Architecture

Reduced Instruction Set Computer (RISC) architecture explained

RISC (Reduced Instruction Set Computer) architecture focuses on reducing the number of cycles per instruction. It has emphasis on software design, has single clock, reduced instructions only, register to register independent instruction, low cycles per second and large code size. See a RISC example

Machine Learning (ML)

Key ideas that makes Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) work so fast

We have explored the key ideas that are used in Graphics Processing Unit to make it so fast. Ideas include many cores in parallel, pack cores full of ALUs by sharing instruction stream by explicit SIMD vector instruction and avoid latency stalls by interleaving execution of many groups.

Machine Learning (ML)

Basic Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) design concepts

we have explored some of the basic architecture concepts in Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) such as graphics pipeline, vector processing, primitive processing, rasterization, fragment processing, pixel operations, graphics architecture and shader programming model There are five basic graphics entity

Machine Learning (ML)

What is a Graphics Processing Unit (GPU)?

A graphics processing unit (GPU) is a processor like CPU and TPU for faster graphics processing. Specifically, it designed to rapidly manipulate and alter memory to accelerate the creation of images in a frame buffer to be displayed on a screen. GPUs are developed by Intel, Nvidia and AMD (ATI).
