Intel Parallel Studio VTune Amplifier is available as a standalone application or as part of the Intel Parallel Studio bundle. The tool analyzes the run-time environment metrics of the target executable such as CPU utilization, Throttling, Thread usage, Memory usage, I/O, and other system-level resources to provide a developer with an extensive and precise report and suggestions for possible improvements. Additionally, the application measures the performance of a program, and each function separately and displays the report in an integrated Visual Studio user-friendly interface with comprehensive graphs and tables. Furthermore, the tool can perform an overview to help a developer identify any bottlenecks to resolve and suggest little tweaks such as increasing the grain size or the scope of the data when using the TBB library that Intel provides. Overall, this is a powerful and reliable tool for scalable parallelization.
Our team will point the usage and importance of the tool by demonstrating a little case study with the code implemented during the semester, precisely. Precisely, the Workshop 7 - Threading Building Blocks(parallel_scan)which is about a trivial Prefix Scan Problem. We will compare the performance and resource utilization of Serial, OpenMP and TBB versions each being analyzed by Intel Parallel Studio VTune Amplifier in Visual Studio.
