Microprocessor with vector instructions is going to be the big thing for the future. Why? Because self-driving, speech recognition, image recognition are all based on machine learning and machine learning is all about matrices and vectors. But that is not the only reason. We have been banging our heads in the wall trying to eke out more performance for years ever since we semi-officially declared Mooreâs laws to be over. In the golden old days of microprocessor design, we could simply double the clock frequency of the CPU each year and boom everybody was happy. That wonderful old trick i...
