- Tianhong: Is a HW license required?
- Martin: No. we are only dealing with open source
- Larry: Happy with current suggestions
- Grant: Plan reasonable for now
- Jakob: Looking for autovectorisations on compilers to work well
- Larry: Generically on benchmarks. What are the target list e.g top 10 benchmarks
- Kanta: We are in the process of pulling this information together to present to the SC
- Tianhong: Transferring x86 vector interaction to ARM has been very hard. Not sure about performance
- Kato: Who has access to benchmarking results?
- Andrea: Member confidential benchmark results are never shared
- Any results that are shared are always agreed by the SIG members
