x86 Ecosystem Advisory Group Aligning On FRED, AVX10 & APX


Last year Intel and AMD formed an x86 Ecosystem Advisory Group 'EAG' in collaboration with key partners

With AMD and Intel in agreement, FRED (Flexible Return Event Delivery), AVX10, and Advanced Performance Extensions (APX) are some of the early areas where they are finding common ground and interest. "Early wins to build on – and more to share in the coming days… FRED (Flexible Return and Event Delivery) – a modernized interrupt model that cuts latency and improves systems software reliability. AVX10 & APX – next generation vector and general purpose instruction set extensions that boost throughput while keeping code portable across client, workstation and server CPUs."
