Arithmetic intensity, II, also known as operational intensity, is the ratio of work, WW, to memory traffic, QQ. It represents the number of operations performed for each byte of memory traffic. When the work, WW, is measured in FLOPs (floating point operations), the arithmetic intensity, II, indicates the ratio of floating point operations to the total data movement, given in FLOPs/byte.
