5. Intel Devices
I devices Intel sono compatibili con l’
ecosistema Android*.
- Android* Dalvik* apps
- These will directly work, Dalvik has beenoptimized for Intel® platforms.
- Android NDK apps
- Most will run without any recompilation on consumer platforms.
- Android NDK provides an x86 toolchain since 2011
- A simple recompile using the Android NDK yields the best performance
- If there is specific processor dependent code, porting may be necessary

6. Intel Devices
Intel Investe molto in tool di sviluppo per
Android
- Faster Android Emulator on Intel (Intel HAXM)
- Intel Threading Building Blocks (TBB)
- Intel Graphics Performance Analyzer (GPA)
- Intel Integrated Performance Primitives (IPP)
- Intel Optimizing Compiler (C++)
- Intel Beacon Mountain
- Project Anarchy

7. Intel Devices
Cosa sta facendo intel per Android

8. Intel Devices
Intel devices on the market with Intel Inside

9. Librerie native
3rd party Libraries with x86 support

10. ???
Ma voi due che c’
entrate con le app
native !?!?

11. NDK
A noi interessa sperimentare la
rapidità/potenzialità della NDK
App NDK
Applicazione
Android
che usa
librerie native

12. Benchmarks
e testarne le performance
Benchmark
C/Java/Javascript

13. AR on mobile
Nei lavori che facciamo una
operazione semplice ma costosa
è fare il grayscale sulle immagini

Attenzione pianta OSX, maverick
installare lo hotfix
cambia la vita con le immagini x86

20. Codice (Java)
Java:
void compute(byte[] in, byte[] out) {
for(int i=0, j=0; i< out.length; i++, j+=3)
out[i] =
(byte)(0.299 * in[j] + 0.587 * in[j+1] + 0.114 * in[j+2]);
}

21. Details (NDK)

start the (intel) avd (url)
enter in the jni folder & execute 'ndk-build'
from the CPUIDApp root dir execute 'ant debug'
adb install -r bin/CPUIdApp-debug.apk

22. Codice (C, jni)
void JNICALL … jbyteArray in, jbyteArray out) {
jsize len_out = (*env)->GetArrayLength(env, out);
...
jbyte *body_out = (*env)->GetByteArrayElements(env, out, 0);
for(i=0, j=0; i< len_out; i++, j+=3)
body_out[i] = (jbyte)(0.299 * body_in[j] + … );
(*env)->ReleaseByteArrayElements(env, in, body_in, 0);
...
}

23. Details (IPP)
Bundled in BeaconMountain
beh … la ‘preview’
http://software.intel.com/en-us/intel-ipp
Scaricate la versione per linux ( la evaluation, or 199$ :( )
Installatela ( vi serve una macchina linux )
Copiate le librerie (*.a) e gli include (*.h)
(32bit statici non-threaded)
… ed avete la IPP per android x86 !!!

24. Codice (IPP)
… jni ...
IppiSize srcRoi = { 1024, 1024 };
Ipp8u* pSrc = body_in;
Ipp8u* pDst = body_out;
ippiRGBToGray_8u_C3C1R(pSrc ,1024, pDst, 1024, srcRoi);
… jni ...
