Intel(R) Parallel Studio XE 2015 Cluster Edition for Linux* OS

README
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Introduction
With a single download and in a single installation session, the
Intel(R) Parallel Studio XE Cluster Edition for Linux* OS provides you w
ith
performance benefits of the Intel(R) Cluster Tools, Intel(R)
Advisor XE, Intel(R) C++ Compiler, Intel(R) Fortran
Compiler, Intel(R) Inspector XE, Intel(R) Integrated Performance
Primitives (Intel(R) IPP), Intel(R) Threading Building Blocks
(Intel(R) TBB), Intel(R) VTune(TM) Amplifier XE for distributed
computing applications running on Intel(R) processors in the Linux* OS
environment.
Intel(R) Parallel Studio XE Cluster Edition provides a software tools
environment for hybrid parallel programming (message passing and
threading). Intel(R) Parallel Studio XE Cluster Edition software compone
nts consist of:
1) Intel(R) C++ Compiler XE 15.0
2) Intel(R) Fortran Compiler XE 15.0
3) GNU* Project Debugger (GDB*) 7.7
4) Intel(R) Integrated Performance Primitives (IPP) 8.2
5) Intel(R) Threading Building Blocks (TBB) 4.3
6) Intel(R) Math Kernel Library (MKL) 11.2
7) Intel(R) MPI Library 5.0 Update 1
8) Intel(R) Trace Analyzer and Collector 9.0 Update 1
9) Intel(R) MPI Benchmarks 4.0
10) Intel(R) Advisor XE 2015
11) Intel(R) Inspector XE 2015
12) Intel(R) VTune(TM) Amplifier XE 2015
For Bourne* Shell on Linux* OS, once the Intel(R) Parallel Studio XE Clu
ster Edition
environment variables referenced within the "psxevars.sh" file have been
sourced via a .bashrc file, for a given Bourne* Shell login session,
you can simply type:
. psxevars.sh ia32
This command creates IA-32 executables. Alternatively, to restore the
default Intel(R) Parallel Studio XE Cluster Edition environment variable
settings
so as to build executables with Intel(R) 64 address extensions, within t
he
Bourne* Shell login session, type:
. psxevars.sh intel64
NOTE: The full path to psxevars.sh can be omitted once it has been
sourced in the .bashrc file.
The "User Checklist" topic of the Installation Guide
provides details on setting up psxevars.sh within Bourne* Shell.
