Intel Parallel Studio is a software development product developed by Intel that facilitates native code development on Windows and Linux in C++/C and Fortran for parallel computing. Parallel programming enables software programs to take advantage of multi-core processors from Intel and other processor vendors.

Parallel Studio is composed of several component parts, each of which is a collection of capabilities.

  • Intel C++ Compiler with OpenMP
  • Intel Fortran Compiler with OpenMP
  • IDE plug-in integration with Visual Studio and Eclipse
  • Debugging via Visual Studio Debugger extensions, GNU Debugger extensions
  • Intel Integrated Performance Primitives (IPP), Intel Math Kernel Library (MKL) and Threading Building Blocks (TBB) libraries, Intel Data Analytics Acceleration Library (DAAL)
  • Intel Advisor - specialized performance profiler to optimize vectorization and a thread prototyping system for adding / improving threading.
  • Intel VTune Amplifier (formerly VTune Performance Analyzer) is a performance profiler that analyzes hotspots, concurrency and locks-and-waits.
  • Intel Inspector improves reliability by identifying memory errors and threading errors.

    • Intel announced Parallel Studio during their Intel Developer Forum in August 2008 along with a web site to sign up for their open beta program. On 26 May 2009, Intel announced that it had released the product to market, and introduced a fourth component named Parallel Advisor Lite. Parallel Advisor Lite is an add-on for Parallel Studio to assist in the analysis and modeling of where to best add parallelism to an application.

    Intel and Microsoft worked together to make their products compatible by adopting a common runtime called the Microsoft Concurrency Runtime, which is part of Visual Studio 2010.

    Intel released a new version, Intel Parallel Studio 2011, on September 2, 2010.
