Optimize exponential functions with FEXPA

About this Learning Path

Who is this for?

This is an introductory topic for developers interested in accelerating exponential function computations using Arm's Scalable Vector Extension (SVE). The FEXPA instruction provides hardware acceleration for exponential calculations on Arm Neoverse processors.

What will you learn?

Upon completion of this Learning Path, you will be able to:

• Implement the exponential function using SVE intrinsics
• Optimize the function with FEXPA

Prerequisites

Before starting, you will need the following:

• Access to an AWS Graviton4, Google Axion, or Azure Cobalt 100 virtual machine from a cloud service provider
• Some familiarity with SIMD programming and SVE intrinsics
