Scientific Algorithm Library (SAL)
The Scientific Algorithm Library (SAL) optimizes processor resources for ultimate performance through its library of algorithm (primitive) implementations. SAL contains more than 600 functions required for demanding processing-intense applications such as radar imaging, image exploitation, signals intelligence, image reconstruction, baggage scanning, manufacturing inspection, and others. Routines are optimized for ultimate performance on AltiVec™-equipped PowerPC® microprocessors such as the IBM PowerPC® 970 and the Freescale™ MPC7447A, and the multicore Cell Broadband Engine™ (BE) processor.
Features
- Floating-point mathematics library contains more than 600 routines
- PowerPC processors with AltiVec technology
- Function categories include fast Fournier transforms, data conversion, signal processing, image analysis, and vector math operations
- Vector math operations include vector reduction, vector-to-vector, vector comparison, and muli-operator vector operations
- Includes arithmetic and logic vector functions for integer, real, double-precision, and complex data types
Benefits
- Optimizes processor resources for ultimate performance
- Fast signal processing library enables high processor utilization
- Stable API reduces product life-cycle costs
