      The paper describes principles of the Intel product, 3DR grapfic library, optimization on the base of MMX technology for Pentium microprocessor.
      Works have been performed during the period of trial operation of new microprocessors. The programming was being performed on ? language using the compiler Proton. The work resulted in creation of the general-purpose graphic library version functioning on Intel´s processors both with traditional command system and using MMX technology.

      Implementation of the fast Fourier transformation (FFT) function family in SPL and RPL libraries is described. Estimates of complexity of most well known FFT computation algorithms are given which take into account specific features of implementation using Pentium and Pentiun Pro processors. General principles of FFT function family arrangement, implementations of different FFT algorithms and support operations, as well as areas of optimization for certain processors, including processors with MMX technology, are considered.
