Cilkpub

Cilkpub is a library of community-contributed Cilk Plus code. The current package (version 1.02) contains the sources for two modules: parallel sorting, and the DotMix DPRNG. See the announcement in the Intel® Cilk™ Plus forum for additional details.

DotMix DPRNG

DotMix is a deterministic parallel random number generator for Cilk Plus. This library is based on research conducted at MIT, as described in Deterministic parallel random-number generation for dynamic-multithreading platforms. This code relies on pedigrees, a feature supported by compilers implementing Cilk Plus as described in ABI document version 1.1 or later. This package contains Version 1.01 of DotMix. The most recent version of DotMix is now included as part of Cilkpub.

libzca 195

libzca provides a framework for accessing metadata in a PIN tool. libzca is shipped as source and requires that you download the PIN dynamic binary instrumentation tool separately. PIN is available from http://www.pintool.org.

The libzca kit includes the full source for the cilkprof tool. cilkprof is an extension of the Intel Cilk view scalability analyzer. cilkprof provides work and span values on a per-function basis.

Structured Parallel Programming Code Examples

Example code from Structured Parallel Programming by Michael McCool, Arch Robison, James Reinders.

This text offers a way to learn parallel programming for any C or C++ programmer, in a manner that will be highly effective because it teaches the most important and successful parallel programming strategies. Examples are in both Cilk Plus and TBB, and the patterns apply to other parallel frameworks.

Updated versions of the code may be available at the Downloads tab of the Structured Parallel Programming website.

Cilk Fib

Calculation of a Fibonacci number in parallel. While this is certainly not the best possible way to calculate a Fibonacci number, it provides a simple demonstration of using cilk_spawn and cilk_sync to parallelize a recursive algorithm.

Open Specifications

Intel Cilk Plus is an essential tool to implement parallelism. As the first step towards our commitment for broad adoption of Cilk Plus, we are making public the language specification that includes both our simple keywords and array notations. These specifications are designed to help other compiler developers implement Cilk Plus for their platforms.

Application Binary Interface (ABI) V1.1

            Intel Cilk Plus ABI as implemented by Intel® Composer XE 2011 SP1.This document describes the Intel® Cilk™ Plus Application Binary Interface, the interface between compiler-generated code and the Intel® Cilk™ Plus runtime. The purpose of this document is to allow a compiler writer to generate code to use the runtime. This interface is version-specific. Previous versions of Cilk have used a different interface and future versions may change the interface.

Intrinsics for Low Overhead Tool Annotations V1.0

            This document specifies two compiler intrinsics that eliminate the overhead in most real use cases, and certainly reduces it. The intrinsics enable richly annotating libraries for tools without incurring significant run-time costs when the tools are not in use. Each annotation is more than a mere mark in the instruction stream. It can accept an expression argument like a call to a routine does.

Language Extension Specification V0.9

            This document defines the Intel® Cilk™ Plus extension to C and C++. The language extension is supported by a run time user mode work stealing task scheduler which is not directly exposed to the application programmer. However, some of the semantics of the language and some of the guarantees provided require specific behavior of the task scheduler.

Runtime Sources

Source for the Intel Cilk Plus runtime. These sources can be used to build the Linux* and OS X* versions of the runtime.

Building the Cilk Plus runtime requires the following prerequisites:

autoconf
automake
A C/C++ compiler that supports the Intel Cilk Plus language extensions; either Intel® Composer XE 2011 SP1 or later (icc command) or the "cilkplus" branch in GCC (gcc command).

Directions on how to build the runtime are in the "readme" file.
