Using Intel Parallel Studio to teach the most difficult issues related to multi-core programming
Posted on Intel Software Network
When I finished installing Intel Parallel Studio and I saw the new toolbars integrated in Visual Studio 2008, I couldn’t help beginning to read the complete documentation for this exciting product.
I really liked the capabilities offered by Intel Parallel Studio. It helped me to work faster in order to parallelize existing serial code. It also helped me to find the most difficult bugs and to profile my applications. I do believe it is a unique tool. You’ll find a lot of information about Intel Parallel Studio on its main Website: http://software.intel.com/en-us/intel-parallel-studio-home/

Management professionals love metrics. However, they don’t like the idea to optimize applications that are currently running. Thus, what about showing them some metrics about the power that they are wasting using a free tool?
Intel’s Hyper-Threading Strikes Back
Posted on http://www.ddj.com/go-parallel/blog/archives/2009/04/intels_hyperthr.html
Intel’s Hyper-Threading technology was introduced with the 3.06 GHz Pentium 4 microprocessor. A few years later, the new Intel Core i7 processors offer Hyper-Threading again.
About
I am researching about parallel programming, multiprocessor and multicore since 1997. My last research is a new Packt’s book, www.packtpub.com. Book’s page: http://www.packtpub.com/beginners-guide-for-C-sharp-2008-and-2005-threaded-programming/book. I’ve been working with computers since I was eight. I began programming with the legendary Texas TI-99/4A and Commodore 64 home computers in the early 80s. I have a Bachelor degree in Computer Science, graduated with honors, and an MBA (Master in Business Administration), graduated with an outstanding thesis. I have worked as developer, architect, and project manager for many companies in Buenos Aires, Argentina. I was project manager in one of the most important mortgage loan banks in Latin America for several years. Now, I am an independent IT consultant, and a freelance author. I am always researching about new technologies and writing about them. I am the author of more than 40 books in Spanish about computer science, modern hardware, programming, systems development, software architecture, business applications, balanced scorecard applications, IT project management, Internet, and electronics, published by Editorial HASA, http://www.hasa.com.ar and Grupo Noriega Editores.
