AVX10 for HPC: +A reasonable solution to the 7 levels of AVX-512 folly

Felix LeClair - Fri 13 Oct 2023

Talk description

- ... + HPC has been using Same Instruction, Multiple Data paradigms to increase the performance of machines, libraries and codes since the early Cray Vector processors. This talk provides a historical overview of x86 SIMD from the 90's to modern and unreleased processors in the form of AVX10, specifically its impact within High Performance Computing. + + Focusing on HPC, this talk is targeted on two primary demographics: Those in HPC packaging/system administration as well as those in HPC Compiler/Library optimization. +The end goal of this talk is to demystify AVX in all its forms, from the HPC focused AVX1, the general workload focused AVX2, and the 7 different, non-overlapping levels of AVX512, and a return to normality with AVX10. HPC stands to benefit from AVX10 not by having new instructions, but rather by setting a new common baseline that developers, administrators and users can universally target without having had to run their own assembly routines prior to moving from one cluster to another.
