The Intel® Manycore Testing Lab technical lead, Dr. Mike Pearce, showcases a demonstration of the scalability of the Open Source Tachyon software. This software implements a ray tracing algorithm that draws a very interesting three-dimensional fractal.  The demo using this software is written using Intel® Threading Building Blocks  to simply and effectively scale the workload based on the number of execution cores on the machine it is running on. Watch this video to see how the Tachyon software scales to 32 cores on the Manycore Testing Lab.
