Many applications that deal with whole numbers do not require the full range provided by the default integer type. While this may be negligible in cases where only a few such numbers are needed, when dealing with large arrays of them the situation is radically different.

The development of a compilation strategy for m-dimensional arrays of n-bit integers poses a major challenge when attempting to target a wide range of architectures with vector instructions including mainstream architectures such as X86 and Sparc as well as novel multicores such as the Cell Broadband Engine or Intel' | The development of a compilation strategy for m-dimensional arrays of n-bit integers poses a major challenge when attempting to target a wide range of architectures with vector instructions including mainstream architectures such as X86 and Sparc as well as novel multicores such as the Cell Broadband Engine or Intel' | ||
