Intel's developer communities invite you to participate in our interactive blogs chronicling all things software.
What do you have planned over the holiday break next month? In your free time, how about coding a small app and then entering it for a chance to win a netbook? If that sounds interesting, head over to our Intel Atom Developer Challenge to learn more. Create a netbook application to submit to the challenge and if you are one of the [...]
This book is a must read for everyone in the IT arena (developers, IT professionals, etc.) because it’s not only a deep guide to Intel® AMT technology, it’s also a very useful review of state-of-the-art manageability standards. If you have discussed or read about WS-Man, WBEM, CIM, DASH, SMASH and other technology acronyms and you [...]
I have to say that I love my job. I get to meet all kinds of fascinating people all on the same road to THINK PARALLEL. One such person is Dr. Dick Brown of St. Olaf College in Northfield, Minnesota. Professor Brown attended last year’s SIGCSE in Chattanooga, TN, and heard Michael Wrinn of Intel’s [...]
Intel® Parallel Studio Service Pack 1 is now available, adding support for Windows* 7. SP1 is well worth downloading and installing - here are some of the reasons: Parallel Inspector and Parallel Amplifier can be driven (for automating test suites) from the command line now. Bug fixes - of course - not many issues needed fixing, but you [...]
As usual of this year at Portland metro, it is raining and windy this week. After watched the SC09 keynotes at Intel Software Network TV, I decided to utilize the pass I got from our Academic Community manager to go to SC09. Trimet MAX Light Rail is my best choice as it will drop me right [...]
According to Jeff Orr, an analyst at ABI Research, Linux-based netbooks will be close to one-third of the 35 million netbooks shipped this year or 11 million Linux netbooks, and Intel has been working with the Moblin community and other projects to make sure that these Linux netbooks run well on Intel architecture. In this video [...]
I didn't get the chance to go to the SC09 conference, but I am watching the news that's coming out of that event. One of the regular features at SC is the release of the TOP500 list of most powerful computers in the world. Check out the website (www.top500.org) for the most current [...]
So you've heard of the Intel® Atom™ Developer Program. As a game developer you may be wondering, "What’s the opportunity?” or “Why bother developing for Atom, won’t many of the same casual games created for a PC work fine on a Netbook?” To get answers I think you have to think outside “typical” PC gaming [...]
That is using of a "nothrow"-variant of new operator which returns NULL in case of failure and allows you to write a simpler OpenMP code.
Once again I would like to discuss the issue of using magic constants in code. We can eternally repeat that one should use sizeof() operator for correct calculation of the size of memory being allocated. But both this knowledge and correct writing of a new code will not help you detect an error already existing in the maze of the old code in large projects.
Hello Parallel Programers! I'm Aaron Tersteeg, Welcome to Episode 56 of Parallel Programming Talk Joining me is guest co-host Dr. Michael Wrinn & James Reinders. Download an mp3 of show. The News: Intel® Parallel Studio Webinars - Live sessions are held at 9 a.m. PST/Noon EST. * Dec. 1: Bernard Laberge, Avid: A Quick and Easy Way to Parallelize a Legacy Codebase [...]
An ever-increasing percentage of people are turning to laptops for business and personal computing. Optimizing your applications for notebook PCs using the Intel® Centrino® processor technology featuring Intel® multi-core mobile processors can help you ensure that your applications offer the best mobile performance for your customers. What's more, if you do it before the end [...]
Today, Intel Corporation unveiled Intel® Parallel Universe Portal, a cloud-based scaling analysis tool to help with parallel programming.
Available today: a way to test scaling using cloud-computing, we have just released this web-based tool to help with parallel programming. Our Intel® Parallel Universe Portal will take your Windows (32 bit) application, run it through the scaling analysis engine in Intel Parallel Studio, and give back a report about the performance running on up to [...]
I'm presently attending the Microsoft PDC 2009 conference and I am today in the Patterns of Parallel Programming workshop. It appeared that the workshop was being recorded and so I sent an e-mail to some of the PDC 2009 organizers and can confirm that the Patterns of Parallel Programming workshop recording will be available to all attendees. Richard [...]
