About this ebook
High Performance Parallelism Pearls shows how to leverage parallelism on processors and coprocessors with the same programming – illustrating the most effective ways to better tap the computational potential of systems with Intel Xeon Phi coprocessors and Intel Xeon processors or other multicore processors. The book includes examples of successful programming efforts, drawn from across industries and domains such as chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. Each chapter in this edited work includes detailed explanations of the programming techniques used, while showing high performance results on both Intel Xeon Phi coprocessors and multicore processors. Learn from dozens of new examples and case studies illustrating "success stories" demonstrating not just the features of these powerful systems, but also how to leverage parallelism across these heterogeneous systems.
- Promotes consistent standards-based programming, showing in detail how to code for high performance on multicore processors and Intel® Xeon Phi™
- Examples from multiple vertical domains illustrating parallel optimizations to modernize real-world codes
- Source code available for download to facilitate further exploration

Preface
This book draws on 69 authors who share how their parallel programming, inspired by the highly parallel Intel® Xeon Phi™ coprocessors, unlocks performance on both processors and coprocessors. In doing so, many of the most critical challenges and techniques in parallel programming are explored with exciting results. Most chapters show how to scale and vectorize well, which will help extract more performance from multicore processors as well as the many-core Intel Xeon Phi coprocessors. Other chapters shed light on harnessing neo-heterogeneous systems that combine Intel® Xeon® processors and Intel Xeon Phi coprocessors in a system offering their common programming models. We have also included chapters with expert advice on the unique aspects of deploying, managing, monitoring, and working with these neo-heterogeneous systems and clusters.
Inspired by 61 cores: A new era in programming
What has been more remarkable to us than the obvious success of the Intel® Xeon Phi™ coprocessors has been experiencing the awakening that the Intel Xeon Phi coprocessor has brought to parallel programming. The coprocessor has truly brought us all the dawn of a critical new chapter in programming. We have seen that the appeal of parallel programming for as many as 61 cores is far higher than the parallel programming for four or eight cores. It has been awakening both interest in adding parallel programming techniques into applications for the first time as well as enhancing already parallel applications. It is encouraging parallel programming that truly scales instead of merely limping along with okay,
sometimes marginal, performance improvements that was seen when targeting only a small amount of parallelism such as on a quad-core
