Intel Wireless MMX technology is the latest high-performance, low-power, seamless extension to the Intel XScale microarchitecture. Intel Wireless MMX technology offers developers a powerful set of new instructions that help enhance the multimedia experience of Intel PCA-based mobile devices. Programming with Intel Wireless MMX Technology shows software developers how to incorporate Intel Wireless MMX technology into mobile and handheld applications. As well as complete information about the instruction set, the book provides an overview of the tools that ease application development. Expert authors deliver sound advice on how to optimize applications, port code from the desktop, and implement algorithmic techniques that have been proven to yield the best performance. Examples are presented covering the key algorithms used in mobile multimedia applications, including MPEG-4 and H.264 video compression, 2D and 3D graphics, image processing, and speech synthesis and compression. The companion CD-ROM contains all code samples presented in the book, technical documentation, and tutorial examples.

5.0 out of 5 stars Briefly -- On the hairy edge of technology..., July 7, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Programming with Intel Wireless MMX Technology: A Developer's Guide to Mobile Multimedia Applications (Paperback)
Chapter 11 of this book is concerned with porting existing MMX to WirelessMMX. If you are the type that is going to play with MMX code, chances are you have been playing with MMX code, and this chapter is ~the~ chapter that you are looking for.

I haven't read far through the book yet, nor tried the examples, but the reading is very presentable and the topics are well aligned with existing needs for performance optimized software on PDA/Phone devices.

IntelPRESS has good connections with the hardware developers at Intel, and the book has been reviewed by some of the key Intel Developers and Systems Integrators. In a world where correctly surfing the technology wave is the difference between staying afloat and drowning -- I look to IntelPress to keep my head above water.
