Modern CPUs provide SIMD (single instruction, multiple data) vector instructions which simultaneously apply the same operation to multiple elements. Peak performance of single cores can often only be reached if vector instructions are used. Vector instructions are automatically generated by compilers, but this approach has its limits. To fully exploit the SIMD capabilities, vector instructions can directly be used in the C programming language through "intrinsics". The lecture explains how vector intrinsics available for the Intel vector extensions (SSE, AVX, AVX-512) can be used to parallelize C programs (lecture videos available online). This knowledge is applied to programming projects in the integrated exercises (done as homework). In zoom meetings, the students present their programming projects. These zoom meetings are also used to discuss the content of the lecture ("inverted classroom" format).
