Intel ® Extended Memory 64 Technology ( Em 64 T )

چکیده
Recent industry developments mark a milestone in the evolution of 64-bit computing. 64-bit computing has been around for a long time in mainframe, reduced instruction set computers (RISC), and, more recently, in Intel IA-64 Itanium® architectures. Now, 64-bit computing is being standardized and driven into volume markets by AMD and Intel in processors that are based on the mainstream x86 architecture, and by software companies such as Microsoft, Red Hat, SUSE, and Oracle with commercial off-the-shelf software. Both the hardware and software include 64-bit extensions that provide many of the benefits of full 64-bit computing. The new technology allows both 32and 64-bit applications to run simultaneously on a system with a 64-bit operating system.

Performance Characterization of the 64-bit x86 Architecture from Compiler Optimizations' Perspective
Intel Extended Memory 64 Technology (EM64T) and AMD 64-bit architecture (AMD64) are emerging 64-bit x86 architectures that are fully x86 compatible. Compared with the 32-bit x86 architecture, the 64-bit x86 architectures cater some new features to applications. For instance, applications can address 64 bits of virtual memory space, perform operations on 64-bit-wide operands, get access to 16 ge...

متن کاملPerformance Characteristics of Dual-Processor HPC Cluster Nodes Based on 64-bit Commodity Processors
Dual-processor nodes are the preferred building blocks in HPC clusters because of the greater performance-to-price ratio of such configurations relative to clusters comprising single-processor nodes. The arrival of 64-bit commodity clusters for HPC is advantageous for large space applications that require memory and I/O addressing beyond the 32-bit support. Some of these 64-bit processors also ...
