Breadth-First Search (BFS) is one of the most important kernels in graph computing. It is the main kernel of the Graph500 rating that evaluates performance of large supercomputers and multiprocessor nodes in terms of traversed edges per second (TEPS). In this paper we present the results of BFS performance evaluation on a recently released high-performance Intel Xeon Phi coprocessor. We examine...

It’s hard to believe that I’ve been asked to write an update to a paper that I co-wrote nearly 40 years ago (S.P. Morse, W.B. Pohlman, and B.W. Ravenel, “The Intel 8086 Microprocessor: A 16-bit Evolution of the 8080,” Computer, vol. 11, no. 6, 1978, pp. 18–27). In those days, 8-bit microprocessors were the state of the art, and Intel was facing a real threat when Zilog Inc. implemented an enhan...

Introducing a New Dynamically and Design-Scalable Microarchitecture that Rewrites the Book on Energy Efficiency and Performance Since the introduction of Intel® CoreTM microarchitecture in 2006 and its 2007 45nm enhancements—the Intel Core microarchitecture (Penryn) family of processors—the blistering performance and energy efficiency of Intel® microprocessors have delivered unprecedented capab...

There was a time when industrial PCs, rigorously tested for high reliability, were a step behind the consumer PC market with respect to implementing the latest processors and advanced technologies. However, this definitely isn’t the case for B&R*, who works closely with Intel to carefully align its automation PC roadmap with Intel® processor launches. For instance, B&R, the world’s largest priv...

Intel® Software Guard Extensions (Intel® SGX) is a promising technology to securely process information in otherwise untrusted environments. An important aspect of Intel SGX is the ability to perform remote attestation to assess the endpoint’s trustworthiness. Ultimately, remote attestation will result in an attested secure channel to provision secrets to the enclave. We seamlessly combine Inte...
