const dotProduct = vectorOps.dot_product(vecA, vecB);

// SIMD vector addition
const vectorSum = vectorOps.vector_add(vecA, vecB);

// SIMD activation functions
const reluResult = vectorOps.apply_activation(vecA, 'relu');
const sigmoidResult = vectorOps.apply_activation(vecA, 'sigmoid');
```

### Neural Network Inference

```javascript
import init, { WasmNeuralNetwork, ActivationFunction } from 'ruv-swarm-wasm';

await init();

// Create a high-performance neural network
const layers = [784, 256, 128, 10]; // MNIST-like architecture
const network = new WasmNeuralNetwork(layers, ActivationFunction.ReLU);
network.randomize_weights(-1.0, 1.0);

// Lightning-fast inference (< 5ms typical)
const input = new Array(784).fill(0).map(() => Math.random());
const output = network.run(input);

console.log('Classification result:', output);
```

### Swarm Orchestration with Performance Monitoring

```javascript
import init, { 
    WasmSwarmOrchestrator, 
    SimdBenchmark 
} from 'ruv-swarm-wasm';

await init();

// Create high-performance swarm orchestrator
const orchestrator = new WasmSwarmOrchestrator();

// Configure swarm for optimal performance
const swarmConfig = {
    name: "Performance Swarm",
    topology_type: "mesh",
    max_agents: 10,
    enable_cognitive_diversity: true,
    simd_optimization: true
};

const swarm = orchestrator.create_swarm(swarmConfig);

// Benchmark SIMD performance
const benchmark = new SimdBenchmark();
const dotProductBench = benchmark.benchmark_dot_product(10000, 100);
const activationBench = benchmark.benchmark_activation(10000, 100, 'relu');

console.log('SIMD Performance:', JSON.parse(dotProductBench));
console.log('Activation Performance:', JSON.parse(activationBench));
```

### Advanced Matrix Operations

```javascript
import init, { SimdMatrixOps } from 'ruv-swarm-wasm';

await init();

const matrixOps = new SimdMatrixOps();

// High-performance matrix operations
const matrix = new Float32Array([
    1.0, 2.0, 3.0,
    4.0, 5.0, 6.0
]); // 2x3 matrix

const vector = new Float32Array([1.0, 2.0, 3.0]);

// SIMD-optimized matrix-vector multiplication
const result = matrixOps.matrix_vector_multiply(matrix, vector, 2, 3);
console.log('Matrix-vector result:', result); // [14, 32]

// Matrix-matrix multiplication for neural layers
const matrixA = new Float32Array([1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0]); // 2x2
const matrixB = new Float32Array([5.0, 6.0, 7.0, 8.0]); // 2x2
const matMulResult = matrixOps.matrix_multiply(matrixA, matrixB, 2, 2, 2);
