Abstract :
This paper describes the streaming SIMD extensions (SSE) provides a rich set of instructions to meet the requirements of demanding multimedia and Internet applications. In implementing the SSE, the Pentium III developers made a number of design trade-offs to satisfy tight die size constraints and attain frequency goals
