Editor: Intel® Cluster Studio provides exceptional value at a significantly discounted price for clusters running either Linux* or Windows*. Easy to install and easy to use, this Intel software package helps you develop, analyze, and optimize performance of parallel applications for clusters using Intel® 32- and 64-bit architectures. Bundling Intel® Trace Analyzer and Collector, Intel® Math Kernel Library (Intel® MKL), Intel® MPI Library, and Intel® MPI Benchmarks into a single package, Intel® Cluster Studio assures industry-wide compatibility and fully tested interoperability of these best-in-class tools.
Benefits:
*Boost application performance on Intel® architecture-based clusters with the Intel® MPI library.
*Intel® MKL includes highly optimized, extensively threaded math routines for science, engineering, and financial applications that require maximum performance.
*Accelerate the analysis and tuning cycle of MPI based cluster applications with the capability for analyzing the effect of advanced interconnects on application performance.
