New Fortran and C++ compilers from Intel

Print Friendly, PDF & Email

Intel announced yesterday two new versions of its C++ and Fortran compilers.

Intel logoThe products feature new automatic support for accelerating program performance on Intel’s latest multi-core processors. Applications containing 3-D graphics or video are automatically accelerated through the use of vectors via Streaming SIMD Extensions (SSE), including the latest SSE 4 instructions. Application performance is also accelerated by multi-core processors through the use of multiple threads. Combining the use of vectors and threads and integrating them with a technology known as loop transformation generates greater performance on multi-core processors without requiring developers to rewrite their code.

Both are available for Windows, Mac, and Linux.
