+## How It Works
 
-A description of the design and implementation of simdjson is in our research article:
+simdjson's startling speed is a result of research into the best ways to take advantage of modern superscalar architectures. The biggest factors are using parallel/vector algorithms and SIMD instructions to eliminate branches, reducing data dependency, and careful attention to cache.
