RTOS supports Integrated Performance
Primitives
The Intel IPP library provides software developers with a comprehensive set of SSE optimised functions to exploit the Intel Streaming SIMD Extensions.
The Intel Integrated Performance Primitives (Intel IPP) Library is now supported by the INtime RTOS, TenAsys' real-time operating system for Intel Architecture processors The Intel IPP library provides software developers with a comprehensive set of SSE optimised functions to exploit the Intel Streaming SIMD Extensions (Intel SSE), delivering performance far beyond that of an optimised compiler

The newest release of INtime will be demonstrated on both the Intel and Microsoft booths at Embedded World in Nuremberg, Germany.
The library contains vector/matrix arithmetic, imaging and signal processing, cryptography and speech recognition functions, as well as audio and video codec components for use in a variety of data and signal-processing applications.
"The real advantage for developers is being able to take off-the-shelf software tools, like Microsoft's Visual Studio and the Intel IPP library, and apply them to a real-time environment to create the highest performing systems", says Kim Hartman, TenAsys VP of Marketing and Sales.
"And INtime has the added advantage of working alongside Windows in an integrated system on Intel multi-core processors".
"The Intel IPP library contains highly optimised code that will help save embedded developers time while improving the performance of their real-time applications", says Paul Wiley, Director of Codecs and Infrastructure Products, Software and Solutions Group, Intel.
"INtime is the first embedded RTOS to support the full suite of Intel IPP library functions".
Intel SSE instructions are designed to speed up the execution of applications that require the intense mathematical computations normally associated with a dedicated DSP, such as image processing, matrix arithmetic, data compression, signal processing, video, audio and telecommunications applications.
IPP includes feature set dispatching based on the instruction set of the processor.
Whether the processor supports x87, MMX, SSE, SSE2, SSE3, SSE4, instruction sets, the best code runs.
Applications that include the library typically execute 2-3x faster than an optimised C language.
The standard Intel IPP library is all that is needed to get started.
Customers can purchase the IPP library directly from the Intel website.
