Memory management challenges in parallel applications
By Roman Lygin (Intel) (3 posts) on October 28, 2009 at 6:18 am
Comments (4)
Let me share some recent practical experience with memory management issues when developing a multi-threaded application. This can probably be a rather common case (as recent post by Roman Dementiev and its follow up discussion demonstrates), and I’d be happy if my experience were helpful for others. Working on CAD Exchanger I am designing one of [...]

n-bodies: a parallel TBB solution: serial body forces one more time
By Robert Reed (Intel) (24 posts) on October 23, 2009 at 11:58 am

Forced to revisit the question of accumulating forces one more time, Robert tests addForce(i,j) and discovers that while accelerations are a little faster, it's not much and a much more complicated story than he realized.

Having found the function that consumes the most time, this episode shows the process of drilling down into the hot source and optimizing it BEFORE going parallel.

Robert finds the hot function in the serial n-bodies code, but only after discovering what a good job of function inlining the Intel C++ Compiler does.

Simulating do-nothing mutexes -- null_mutex and null_rw_mutex
By Wooyoung Kim (Intel) (5 posts) on September 28, 2009 at 11:16 am
Comments (1)
Early this year a TBB user requested in the forum for the feature that simulates mutexes that do nothing. The user wrote “Lot of times, when we do template meta programming, we need to provide some containers with no mutex (tbb containers) and some containers with a tbb Mutex...[snip]... If we can have a NullMutex [...]

Robert finally deals with the eternal question, forces or accelerations? Which is it more efficient to accumulate?

tbb::concurrent_vector in TBB 2.2

Concurrent vector was also significantly reworked for TBB 2.2 in all areas: interface, documentation, and internal implementation. Let's start from the interface. Methods push_back(), grow_by(), and grow_to_at_least() return iterator now.
