Programming for the Intel Xeon Phi
SESSION: Programming for the Intel Xeon Phi
EVENT TYPE: Tutorials
TIME: 8:30AM - 5:00PM
Presenter(s):Lars Koesterke, Luke Wilson, John McCalpin, Kent Milfeld
ROOM:205/207
ABSTRACT:
The Innovative Technology component of the recently deployed XSEDE Stampede supercomputer at TACC provides access to 8 PetaFlops of computing power in the form of the new Intel Xeon Phi Coprocessor, also known as a MIC. While the MIC is x86 based, hosts its own Linux OS, and is capable of running most user codes with little porting effort, the MIC architecture has significant features that are different from that of present x86 CPUs, and optimal performance requires an understanding of the possible execution models and basic details of the architecture. This tutorial is designed to introduce attendees to the MIC architecture in a practical manner. Multiple lectures and
hands-on exercises will be used to acquaint attendees with the MIC platform and explore the different execution modes as well as parallelization and optimization through example testing and reports.
