Concurrent Age

Knights Landing Intel Xeon Phi processors are based on so-called many integrated cores (MIC) architecture, aiming to provide high-performance computational abilities and portable programming interfaces, of which I consider tthe second feature the most attractive characteristic for programmers. The first generation (KNC) was announced at 2012, but actually there is a prototype--Knights Ferry proposed before. In this article, we would like to discuss both architectural and programming features about the most recent Xeon Phi Processor--Knights Landing. Eye-catching Things Standalone Processor KNL could be used as a standalone processor or a coprocessor, and it could run several common operating systems, like REHL, CentOS, Fedora, and SUSE. While KNC does not support the function. 16GB HBM The on package memory is similar to that of GPU, but somehow larger. Further, because intel supports different kinds of memory usage, which we would discuss in later section, it is a
