Intel has long been delivering microprocessor architectures with ever increasing performance. Now, Intel’s solutions feature a platform architecture that offers increasing processing capability while addressing the constraints of both footprint and power consumption. With innovations that move beyond clock speed to offer integrated platform solutions, Intel is a leader in the industry in enabling new generations of communications and embedded computing applications.

The introduction of multi-core processors from Intel provides developers with an opportunity to scale performance while optimizing power consumption. To fully exploit this opportunity, developers must understand the inherent parallelism in their applications. Intel provides development tools and technical information to assist the developer in maximizing performance on multi-core platforms.

This paper provides an overview of parallelism constructs and programming techniques, focusing on common threading issues and performance tuning.
