Intel C++ Compiler Professional Edition offers support for creating multi-threaded applications. The Professional Edition offers the breadth of advanced optimization, multi-threading, and processor support that includes automatic processor dispatch, vectorization, auto-parallelization, OpenMP, data prefetching, and loop unrolling, along with highly optimized C++ templates for parallelism, math processing, and multimedia libraries.
The Professional Edition combines a high performance compiler, which now includes support for Debian and Ubuntu, with Intel Threading Building Blocks (Intel TBB), Intel Integrated Performance Primitives (Intel IPP) and Intel Math Kernel Library (Intel MKL). While these libraries are available separately, the Professional Edition creates a strong foundation for building robust, high performance parallel code.
The free download edition is available for non-commercial software develpment only. Non-commercial means users do not receive compensation in any form for the products and services developed using Intel C++ Compiler Professional.
