Lattice QCD on upcoming Arm architectures
arXiv:1904.03927
Abstract
Recently Arm introduced a new instruction set called Scalable Vector Extension (SVE), which supports vector lengths up to 2048 bits. While SVE hardware will not be generally available until about 2021, we believe that future SVE-based architectures will have great potential for Lattice QCD. In this contribution we discuss key aspects of SVE and describe how we implemented SVE in the Grid Lattice QCD framework.
