Channels ▼   Intel Updates Cluster and Parallel Studio XE 2013
Just days before the start of the firm's San Francisco located
developer forum symposium, Intel has detailed the release of
updates to two flagship development suites: Intel Cluster Studio
XE 2013 and Intel Parallel Studio XE 2013.  These "integrated"
suites are designed to help C++ and Fortran developers create
applications for the latest Intel processors and coprocessors,
including Haswell-EP, Broadwell and the range of Intel Xeon Phi
coprocessors.  Updates include better compiler and library
performance, additional Windows development support, and
standards integration for OpenMP 4.0, MPI 2.x, Fortran 2003 &
2008, and C++ 11. The Intel Cluster Studio XE 2013 SP1 supports
shared, distributed, and hybrid memory applications.  This
release can "scale performance" — there is a low-latency MPI
library and native profiling and tuning of MPI applications now
includes node level analysis; it can "scale forward" — there is
scope to scale up to 120K MPI
