Timothy,
thanks for the pointer and the additional information.
Apart from personal interest, my primary focus is in creating support
for the new instructions in the z390 emulator for HLASM and runtime support.
As such I am more interested in the technicalities than in the broad
overview.

The IBM z13's ~139 SIMD instructions are different and new, yes. I expect
that they represent a perfect functional superset of the long ago
discontinued S/390 Vector Facility. However
All,
I just downloaded the new version of the Principles of Operation
SA22-7832-10 from IBM.
The vector new vector architecture looks interesting, but completely
different from the old vector architecture.
