Introducing Intel® SDK for OpenCL* Applications XE 2013
Develop highly parallel applications using OpenCL* 1.2 for Intel® Xeon® processors, and Intel Xeon Phi™ coprocessors
The new Intel® SDK for OpenCL* Applications XE 2013 includes certified OpenCL 1.2 support for Intel Xeon processors, and Intel Xeon Phi coprocessors for Linux* operating systems. Targeted at developers of highly parallel applications including High Performance Compute (HPC), workstations, and data analytics, the new SDK broadens the parallel programming options on Intel architecture and allows developers to maximize data parallel application performance on Intel Xeon Phi coprocessors.
The Intel SDK for OpenCL Applications XE 2013 includes an OpenCL runtime API for Intel Xeon processors and Intel Xeon Phi coprocessors as well as tools, optimization guides, samples, and training content.
For Intel Xeon Phi coprocessor support, you must install Intel® Manycore Platform Software Stack (Intel® MPSS) Update 3 or higher. Available at http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/intel-manycore-platform-software-stack-mpss
About the Intel® Xeon Phi™ Coprocessor
The Intel Xeon Phi coprocessor is the first product based on Intel Many Integrated Core Architecture (Intel® MIC architecture), and it targets highly parallel segments such as oil exploration, scientific research, financial analyses, and climate simulation. Intel MIC architecture combines many Intel CPU cores onto a single chip. Developers interested in programming these cores can use standard programming methods. The same OpenCL source code written for Intel Xeon processors can be reused on Intel Xeon Phi coprocessors with minimal modifications.
