System.Numerics.Vectors

"This package provides APIs for accessing CPU-specific Single Instruction Multiple Data (SIMD) operations. SIMD allows parallelizing certain operations at the hardware level. This is especially useful in domains that perform computations over vectors, such as graphics, gaming, mathematics or finance. The types in this package are implemented in IL which allows them to be used on non-SIMD enabled JIT compilers and hardware. However, in order to actually use SIMD instructions, you'll need to run on a JIT compiler that knows about these types in order to emit SIMD instructions. The JIT shipped with the current .NET runtime does not. The .NET code generation team has published a CTP of the the new JIT, codenamed ""RyuJIT"". The CTP adds SIMD support when compiling for x64. Supported Targets: - .NET Framework 4.5 - Windows 8 - Portable Class Libraries"
