Whether you are developing a Windows*, Linux*, or Mac OS* application for a
laptop, desktop, or server, the Intel® Integrated Performance Primitives
(IPP) will help you obtain the highest application performance and get the most
out of todays multi–core processors.
Optimizing Applications for Multi-Core Processors is the second
edition of the successful Intel Integrated Performance Primitives (IPP)
book. The essential guide to incorporating the fully thread–safe Intel
IPP functions into your applications. In this new edition Stewart Taylor, the
former chief architect of Intel IPP, explains proven techniques for using the
library to exploit the advanced Intel® Core™ micro architecture
features without having to write processor–specific code. Extensive
examples written in C and C++ explore the range of possible applications, from
multimedia to signal and data processing, and show you how to take advantage of
functions that are now highly optimized for the Intel multi–core
processors.
After reading this book you will:
 |
Be more efficient in using the Intel IPP library and
application programming interface |
|
Dramatically improve the performance and speed of
development of your applications |
|
Quickly solve common image, audio, video, graphics, and
signal/data processing problems
|
The companion Web site provides all code examples presented in the book and an
evaluation version of the Intel Integrated Performance Primitives.
