  REUSE.toml opens with "SPDX-License-Identifier: MIT" and "SPDX-FileCopyrightText: 2024-2026 Arm Limited", the REUSE declaration that MIT governs the repository files it annotates.

Arm Compute Library ships as source and prebuilt binaries rather than through a package registry, so GitHub stars are the only adoption signal available. A star is not a use.

Arm Compute Library provides hand-optimized NEON and OpenCL kernels for machine-learning operators, mainly across Arm's own Cortex-A, Neoverse and Mali hardware, with x86 also listed. OpenVINO declares it as a submodule and oneDNN can be built against it on Arm CPUs, which places it one step below Apache TVM.

• https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ARM-software/ComputeLibrary/main/docs/user_guide/introduction.dox recorded 2026-09-30

  Introduction says "The Compute Library is a collection of low-level machine learning functions optimized for both Arm CPUs and GPUs using SIMD technologies." with builds for "Arm® Neon™ / OpenCL / Arm® Neon™ and OpenCL".

• https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ARM-software/ComputeLibrary/main/README.md recorded 2026-09-30

  README describes "a collection of low-level machine learning functions optimized for Arm® Cortex®-A, Arm® Neoverse™ and Arm® Mali™ GPUs architectures." with "Over 100 machine learning functions for CPU and GPU" and "Multiple convolution algorithms (GeMM, Winograd, FFT, Direct and indirect-GeMM)".

• https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ARM-software/ComputeLibrary/main/README.md recorded 2026-09-30

  README lists supported hardware "Arm® Mali™-G processor family" and "Arm® Neoverse™ processor family", and also "x86", with "Device and workload specific tuning using OpenCL tuner and GeMM optimized heuristics".

• https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openvinotoolkit/openvino/master/.gitmodules recorded 2026-09-30

  OpenVINO .gitmodules declares a submodule "ARMComputeLibrary" at "src/plugins/intel_cpu/thirdparty/ComputeLibrary" with "url = https://github.com/ARM-software/ComputeLibrary.git".

• https://raw.githubusercontent.com/uxlfoundation/oneDNN/main/README.md recorded 2026-09-30

  oneDNN README says the CPU engine "can be built with" "Arm Compute Library (ACL)] integration" on AArch64 CPUs.
