More About This Title Parallel Programming with Intel Parallel Studio XE
English
Parallel programming is rapidly becoming a "must-know" skill for developers. Yet, where to start? This teach-yourself tutorial is an ideal starting point for developers who already know Windows C and C++ and are eager to add parallelism to their code. With a focus on applying tools, techniques, and language extensions to implement parallelism, this essential resource teaches you how to write programs for multicore and leverage the power of multicore in your programs. Sharing hands-on case studies and real-world examples, the authors examine the challenges of each project and show you how to overcome them.
Explores conversion of serial code to parallelFocuses on implementing Intel Parallel StudioHighlights the benefits of using parallel codeAddresses error and performance optimization of codeIncludes real-world scenarios that illustrate the techniques of advanced parallel programming situationsParallel Programming with Intel Parallel Studio dispels any concerns of difficulty and gets you started creating faster code with Intel Parallel Studio.
