Intel® Parallel Studio XE parallel software development suite combines Intel's industry-leading C/C++ compiler and Fortran compiler; performance and parallel libraries; error checking, code robustness, and performance profiling tools into a single suite offering. This helps boost application performance and increase the code quality, security, and reliability needed by high-performance computing and enterprise applications. At the same time, the suite eases the procurement of all the necessary tools for high performance, and simplifies the transition from multicore to manycore processors in the future. Develop parallel applications the easy way with Intel® Parallel Advisor. This threading assistant tool for C/C++ Microsoft Visual Studio* developers provides a step-by-step proposal that simplifies transitioning serial applications to parallelism. Now available with the purchase of Windows* versions of Intel® Parallel Studio XE or Intel® C++ Studio XE parallel software development suites.

"Intel® Parallel Studio XE is a great software development tool for performance-oriented Windows*-based C++ software developers. I achieved an astonishing boost in performance by using Intel Cilk Plus and Array Notation features in my code. If you need performance, try Intel Parallel Studio XE." |

"I was pleasantly surprised by all the analysis functionality in Intel® Parallel Studio XE for Windows, and particularly impressed with the memory and threading analysis capabilities in Intel® Inspector XE, part of Parallel Studio XE. I thought it was pretty cool that I could make changes, do another round of analysis and easily compare the 'before' and 'after effect on my application. I found the compiler in Intel® C++ Composer XE – also part of Parallel Studio XE – to be very solid. Its Guided Auto Parallelism (GAP) and Array Notation features were very helpful in adding performance. Parallel Studio XE adds a lot to Visual Studio*-based developers." |

"Intel SSA allowed us to easily find lots of potential flaws, thus preventing future bugs or misuse to occur. Ultimately, we expect the SSA to help us not reproduce typical security flaws." |

"Intel® Inspector XE intuitive user interface and powerful analysis features increased my productivity, by making it easier and faster to find memory and threading errors in the code. With one easy to use tool, Intel® Inspector XE made it possible to customize the type and depth of analysis more efficient and faster in finding memory or threading coding defects - helped save time ." |

"Intel continues to impress with me with its compilers for Windows* platform. The new Intel® Fortran Composer XE for Windows* and Intel® C++ Composer XE for Windows* offer developers great performance improvement features, such as the new Guided Auto Parallelism (GAP). Both products are nicely integrated into the newest editions of Visual Studio*. Enhancements to Intel® Math Kernel Library (Intel® MKL) and Intel® Integrated Performance Primitives (Intel® IPP) provide additional performance gains. These libraries not only provide speed, but also cover a wide range of applications and are great building-blocks for engineers and scientists. If you need performance for your C++ and/or Fortran applications, you need to try Intel software development products." |

"The Intel Parallel Studio XE Static Security Analysis tool was easy to setup and intuitive to use. The User Interface lets you concentrate on particular classes of error or particular files in the project. It provides the ability to filter out much of the noise and keeps it filtered out even after changes to the code. This gives it a great advantage over tools that just generate text output." |

"We are working with video processing and object detection. We take video from the video-source and put frames into few threads for parallel processing. By using Intel Inspector XE we found the hidden data-race while taking frames from the source. This problem solving solution helped us find the way to pick up frames faster, resulting in a speed-up of the processing itself and increased the stability of our application." |
