A family of x86 coprocessors from Intel for parallel computing. Dubbed the "Many Integrated Core" (MIC) architecture, Xeon Phi chips run at lower speeds than ordinary Intel CPUs but make up for the ...

When introducing its monster 72-core Xeon Phi chip, Intel couldn’t help but take a swipe at graphics processors for being sluggish for some tasks. Ironically, Xeon Phi is a byproduct of Larrabee, ...

This is the third in a four-part series about the Intel® Scalable System Framework. Other contributions cover Intel® Omni-Path Architecture fabric, HPC software and the OpenHPC community, and Intel® ...

If there is anything that chip giant Intel has learned over the past two decades as it has gradually climbed to dominance in processing in the datacenter, it is ironically that one size most ...

A first wave of benchmarks and real-world application runs on Intel’s Knights Landing has hit the shores and while not all the codes will be familiar or widely used, the takeaway of significant ...

Intel used a benchmark slide during its presentation at ISC 2016 to detail their Xeon Phi processors being 2.3x faster than NVIDIA GPUs in neural network training. According to Intel's data and ...

Nvidia has called out Intel for juicing its chip performance in specific benchmarks—accusing Intel of publishing some incorrect “facts” about the performance of its long-overdue Knights Landing Xeon ...

It's been almost three years since Intel first detailed its upcoming Xeon Phi hardware, codenamed Knights Landing, and the company is now shipping silicon to ...

Today’s opening keynote at the Intel Developers Forum focused on a number of forward-looking AI, deep learning, connectivity and networking technologies, like 5G and Silicon Photonics. But late in the ...

This new paper by Dr Sparsh Mittal surveys techniques for evaluating and optimizing Intel's Xeon Phi. Now accepted in Concurrency and Computation 2020, the survey reviews nearly 100 papers. Intel Xeon ...
