319433-017.pdf doesn't seem to exist, but I found version 16 at:
https://software.intel.com/en-us/file/319433-016.pdf
I presume the reference is to the AVX512 register file and instructions.
(In 64-bit mode, 32 512-bit vector registers.)
I don't *think* Intel has announced any hardware with avx512 support,
but I presume that such chips are in the pipeline.
