Delivery of Streaming Media

• Audio and video functions regularly perform the same operation on arrays of data values

  • IA-64 manages its resources to execute these functions efficiently
    • Able to manage general register’s as 8x8, 4x16, or 2x32 bit elements
    • Multimedia operands/results reside in general registers

• IA-64 accelerates compression / decompression algorithms

  • Parallel ALU, Multiply, Shifts
  • Pack/Unpack; converts between different element sizes.

• Fully compatible with IA-32 MMXä technology, Streaming SIMD Extensions and PA-RISC MAX2

IA-64 resources and parallelism enables efficient delivery of rich web content
