• Cortex-A76: Laptop-Class Performance With Mobile Efficiency
    Last year we brought you the very first CPUs based on Arm’s innovative new DynamIQ technology. By adding even greater flexibility to the already popular big.LITTLE model , DynamIQ allows partners greater...
  • Dev Board or Cycle Accurate Sim for Arm Cortex A-76/77/78
    Hello, I'm a graduate student at the University of Michigan, and I have an idea for a compiler technique on the Arm Cortex A-76/77/78 CPUs. It requires the use of NEON instructions on specifically...
  • Normal Memory ordering & precise state question
    From the ARMv8 spec, section K11.6 there is a discussion of the issues that arise from normal memory being weakly ordered. It's clear that without a DMB in both parts of the code, P2 can see either the...
  • New Arm Cortex-A77 CPU continues path towards compute performance leadership
    Following the great success of last year’s Arm Cortex-A76 CPU , we are excited to launch the third generation DynamIQ ‘big’ core Arm Cortex-A77 CPU . It is the second in the family of high-performance...
  • Multi-threading Technology and the Challenges of Meeting Performance and Power Consumption for Mobile Applications
    The implementation of multi-threading in multi-core processor systems is being heralded as a potential solution to the challenge of achieving ever-higher performance targets with strict limits on power...
