SIMD Integers

The Intel Single Instruction Multiple Data (SIMD) technology provides additional ways to define inte-
gers (see Chapter 2, “The IA-32 Platform”). These new integer types enable the processor to perform
arithmetic operations on a group of multiple integers simultaneously.
The SIMD architecture uses the packed integer data type. A packed integer is a series of bytes that can
represent more than one integer value. Mathematical operations can be performed on the series of bytes
as a whole, working on the individual integer values within the series in parallel (this concept is
described in Chapter 17, “Using Advanced IA-32 Features”). The following sections describe the differ-
ent SIMD packed integer types available on Pentium processors.
