 Simultaneous Multi Threading (SMT2)

Why
Simultaneous multithreading allows instructions only
from more than one thread to execute in any given 45?
pipeline stage at a time
SMT helps address memory latency, resulting in
overall throughput gains
It can increase processing efficiency, and
throughput
Currently available on IFLs (Linux and z/VM) and
zIIPs (z/OS)
The number of concurrent threads is limited to two
and can be turned on or off by an operator
command and also set up through parmlib for z/OS
Which approach is designed
for the highest volume of
traffic? Which road is faster?
Note: SMT is designed to deliver better overall throughput for many workloads.
Performance in some cases may be superior using single threading

 SIMD (Single Instruction Multiple Data)
Increased parallelism to enable analytics processing
