Arm Community blogs

I blogged before that I was going to speak at the AMD Fusion Developer Summit. Yesterday in Bellevue I announced that ARM was joining the Heterogeneous System Architecture (HSA) Foundation as a founder…

ARM's GPU architects and engineers regularly push the envelope in mobile graphics technology, which is why the latest Mali GPU cores offer such a unique combination of best-in-class graphics performance…

Just a day ago we've lifted the veil off the ARM® Mali™-T658, the second Mali GPU based on the Midgard architecture that we launched a year ago. It's been brewing in our labs next to the…

Everyone is excited by Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich (ICS) and no wonder! Google's "most ambitious release to date" rolls out many new features that look very promising indeed: zero-click NFC…

As graphics processor hardware now supports a number of different floating point data formats, it is important to understand how to select an appropriate format for your calculations, and why the choice…

Our latest world-class embedded graphics processor, the ARM® Mali™-T604 GPU, has excellent memory bandwidth, pixel fill rates to make the mind boggle, and gigaflops of programmable shading power…

Taking an in-depth look at all methods used throughout the industry to compare GPU performance in the handset space as well as their accuracy (or lack thereof) is not an easy task. Uniquely this year,…

The ARM Mali-400 MP was the world's first embedded multicore graphics processor (GPU) when it was launched, back in 2008, and Mali-T604 continues that trend. Since then, there have been a number of…

In the first blog of this series, I claimed that as a GPU performance metric, triangles per second (aka TPS or triangle rate) is a chocolate teapot — i.e. utterly and completely useless — and talked about…
