Spiral logo

Intel has announced that the new version of its high performance library IPP, used by thousands of companies world-wide, will feature a new domain for functions generated by Spiral, a tool developed in ECE under the lead of Professors Markus Püeschel and José Moura. Spiral can replace the human programmer in the very difficult task of writing highest performance code for important numerical functions and often achieves even better performance than human programmers. The technology underlying Spiral's success was developed by ECE System Scientist Franz Franchetti and Püeschel's recent Ph.D. graduate Yevgen Voronenko.
