Intel® Platform Modeling with Machine Learning

Product Overview | Download

The Intel® Platform Modeling tool is an Intel research project which simultaneously collects all available hardware metrics on the platform – host processor, chipset, video, 3D, even NVIDIA.

Intel® Decimal Floating-Point Math Library

Product Overview | Download

Software implementation of the IEEE 754R Decimal Floating-Point Arithmetic specification aimed at financial applications, especially in cases where legal requirements make it necessary to use decimal, and not binary floating-point arithmetic.

Intel® Location Technologies Software Development Kit 1.0 (LTSDK)

Product Overview | Download map

The Intel® Location Technologies Software Development Kit 1.0 (Intel® LTSDK) provides a location identification engine and a location identification API to work across Intel mobile platforms.

Intel® C++ Parallelism Exploration Compiler, Prototype Edition

Product Overview | Download

The Intel® C++ Parallel Exploration Compiler, Prototype Edition, uses novel C and C++ language extensions to make parallel programming easier. There are four keywords introduced within this version of the prototype compiler - __parallel, __spawn, __par, and __critical. These are used as statement prefixes.

Intel® Mash Maker: Mashups for the Masses

Product Overview | Sign Up

Intel® Mash Maker is an extension to your existing web browser that allows you to easily augment the page that you are currently browsing with information from other websites.



Integrated Debugger for Java*/JNI Environments

Product OverviewDownload

Here is a debugger for cases where Java applications can not be written entirely in the Java language and use the Java Native Interface (JNI) to access native code. This tools fills a gap left by traditional Java debuggers which can not satisfy all developer needs because they do not effectively support debugging native code written in languages such C/C++.


Intel® Performance Tuning Utility 3.0

Product OverviewDownload

The Intel® Performance Tuning Utility (Intel® PTU) offers a low overhead statistical call graph and the power of the processor hardware event counters for a detailed look into the performance of the memory system.  NEW with v3.0, you'll find and extension to Results Difference, allowing measurement comparison of different binaries compiled from the same source!

Intel® C++ STM Compiler, Prototype Edition 2.0

Product Overview | Download 

The Intel® C++ STM Compiler, Prototype Edition 2.0 for IA-32 and Intel®64 platforms includes runtime libraries for transactional memory language construct extensions. Transactional memory simplifies parallel programming by avoiding common pitfalls that make applications prone to deadlocks.
