The technical articles listed below supplement the information provided in the Cilk-Programmers-Guide (pdf) included in the Intel Cilk++ SDK download. These articles include introductions to parallelism in general and Cilk++ in particular, case studies that demonstrate how various serial algorithms and applications have been converted to parallel programs with the Intel Cilk++ SDK, and “under-the-cover” explorations that describe some of the details of the implementation of the Intel Cilk++ SDK.
Many of these articles were originally published by Cilk Arts; in some cases, references to Cilk Arts and comments that were posted when the articles were first published have been retained.
