This is an intensive two day course on programming for the Intel(R) Xeon Phi. It includes a lot of hands on exercises and an overview of tools such as Intel(R) VTune.

By the end of the course you should have a better understanding of how to help the compiler automatically vectorise your code, how to profile your software to look for hot spots and problem areas, and how to find out how well the compiler is optimising your software, among other things.

It should be noted that, although the main focus of this course is in getting your software going well on the Xeon Phi Coprocessors, these skills apply to programming for CPUs too.
