Binaries compiled with the Intel compiler now automatically support both AVX2 and AVX512 instruction sets. In technical terms, we call them multi-architecture binaries, also known as [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fat_binary fat binaries]. This means that when running on a cluster such as Cedar and Graham which has multiple generations of processors, you don't have to manually load one of the <tt>arch</tt> modules if you use software packages generated by the Intel compiler. | Binaries compiled with the Intel compiler now automatically support both AVX2 and AVX512 instruction sets.
