MMX / iSSE
instructions can greatly enhance
the performance of the following applications: multimedia (audio/video),
communications,
DSP
kernels, 2D and 3D
graphics, image processing
and speech
recognition.
But current compilers do
not support
these instructions. You have to learn all those instructions sets,
then painfully code in plain assembly, then discover that achieving the
maximum performance requires deep knowledge of the processors'
microarchitectures,
and finally that debugging and modifying your code is a nightmare.
Now there is a better
way: Quexal,
a development environment aimed at MMX / iSSE
programmers.
Here is how Quexal will help
you get the
job done quickly and easily:
- flatten the learning
curve! you can work with well understood concepts, such as
variables
and common operations, instead of registers and cryptic MMX
/ iSSE
opcodes;
- take it easy!
its custom designed graphical
interface guides you step by step, displaying only relevant options;
- work faster!
the compiler optimizes
source
code into optimally scheduled MMX / iSSE assembly code that can be
directly
pasted into any other development environment, thus taking the
optimization
phase, the most time-consuming and error prone one, out of the
development
cycle;
- save an upgrade!
you can use MMX and iSSE
instructions even if your compiler does not support them, as the
bytecode
compiler turns source instructions directly into machine language;
Quexal
supports the Microsoft Visual C++, Borland C++ Builder and Borland Delphi
compilers;
- bug killer!
includes a visual Debugger
that
re-arranges source code in a graph showing dependency bonds among
instructions;
you can enter source values and analyze what the instructions defined
in
source code do, and therefore easily detect troublesome spots;
- become a code guru
- instantly! the optimized
code is as good as that written by world class programmers, but no
knowledge of micro architectural designs is required;
- maintaining code?
no problem! you can modify the source code in the Quexal
environment
and then optimize it again, instead of changing MMX / iSSE code
listings.
Now you can build
State-of-the-Art applications quickly
and easily with Quexal!
