Systematic study of code restructurings to enable compiler-supported SIMD (Single Instruction, Multiple Data) vectorization.
Application of OpenMP directives for achieving both vectorization and parallelization.
Evaluation of performance gains using lookup tables, considering hardware-specific challenges.
Detailed performance measurements across various CPU architectures (Intel Xeon, Xeon Phi, AMD Epyc, ARM, Fujitsu A64FX).

Main Results:

Suitable OpenMP directives effectively enable both SIMD vectorization and parallelization.
Lookup table performance benefits are hardware-dependent due to vectorization challenges.
SIMD vectorization and code restructuring led to an 84% reduction in computing time for a large-scale simulation ensemble.
