RISC-V Vectorization And Potential for HPC


A new technical paper titled "Test-driving RISC-V Vector hardware for HPC" was published by researchers at University of Edinburgh. Abstract: "Whilst the RISC-V Vector extension (RVV) has been ratified, at the time of writing both hardware implementations and open source software support are still limited for vectorisation on RISC-V. This is important because vectorisation is crucial to obt... » read more
