Faster JSON parsing with SVE2 on ARM processors

ARM processors, like those in your phone, have instructions capable of processing several elements at once (SIMD). These instructions are called NEON. But many newer processors have a different SIMD extension called SVE. The latest ARM processors have SVE2. Unfortunately, Apple has not yet adopted SVE, but SVE processors are available in the cloud. In … Continue reading Faster JSON parsing with SVE2 on ARM processors

I maintain and comaintain several open-source libraries. Some of them are widely used: ada parses URLs in Node.js, fast_float parses numbers in GCC's standard library and in Chromium, simdjson parses JSON in Node.js, simdutf validates and transcodes Unicode in Node.js, and the Roaring bitmap libraries sit inside many database engines. These libraries are mature. They … Continue reading A summer of AI optimization

You might need to pass a comprehensive examination that checks whether you have a basic understanding of the field. A few students fail at this point, but not many.Then you write a thesis … Continue reading A thesis isn’t enough for a PhD
