I think this is a good start: http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-4.1.1/gcc/X86-Built_002din-Functions.html#X86-Built_002din-Functions it describes gcc's builtin functions equivalent to SSE's assembler instructions. Both MMX and SSE2 are SIMD (Single Instruction Multiple Data), but MMX works on integers and SSE2 on floating point data.
