Intel '''Parallel Studio XE''' iswas a software development product developed by [[Intel]] that facilitatesfacilitated native code development on [[Microsoft Windows|Windows]], [[macOS]] and [[Linux]] in [[C++]]/[[C (programming language)|C]] and [[Fortran]] for [[parallel computing]].<ref name="homepage" /> Parallel programming enables software programs to take advantage of [[multi-core processor]]s from Intel and other processor vendors.

Intel '''Parallel Studio XE''' was rebranded and repackaged by Intel when [https://software.intel.com/content/www/us/en/develop/tools/oneapi/all-toolkits.html oneAPI toolkits] were released in December 2020.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Intel Announces New oneAPI Toolkits for XPU Software Development|url=https://www.hpcwire.com/off-the-wire/intel-announces-new-oneapi-toolkits-for-xpu-software-development/|access-date=2020-12-08|website=HPCwire|language=en-US}}</ref> '''Intel oneAPI Base Toolkit + Intel oneAPI HPC toolkit''' contain all the tools in Parallel Studio XE and more.

== Components ==

Parallel Studio is composed of several component parts, each of which is a collection of capabilities.

* [[Intel C++ Compiler]] with [[OpenMP]]

* [[Intel Fortran Compiler]] with [[OpenMP]]

* [[Integrated development environment|IDE]] [[plug-in (computing)|plug-in]] integration with [[Microsoft Visual Studio|Visual Studio]] and, [[Eclipse (software)|Eclipse]] and [[Xcode]]<ref name="homepage"/>

* [[Debugging]] via [[Microsoft Visual Studio Debugger|Visual Studio Debugger]] extensions, [[GNU Debugger]] extensions

* Intel [[Integrated Performance Primitives]] (IPP), Intel
*[[Math Kernel Library]] (MKL) and
*[[Threading Building Blocks]] (TBB) [[library (computing)|libraries]], Intel
*[[Data Analytics Acceleration Library]] (DAAL)

* [[Intel Advisor]] - specialized performance profiler to optimize vectorization and a thread prototyping system for adding / improving threading.

*[[Intel VTune Amplifier|Intel [[VTune Profiler]] Amplifier (formerly VTune Performance AnalyzerAmplifier) is a performance profiler that analyzes [[Hot spot (computer science)|hotspots]], [[concurrencythreading, (computerI/O, science)|concurrency]]FPGA, [[LockGPU, (computer science)|locks-and-waits]]system, memory access,throttling and storagemicroarchitecture bottlenecks.

* [[Intel Inspector]] improves reliability by identifying memory errors and threading errors.

* Intel MPI Library – a multi-fabric message passing library that implements the [[Message Passing Interface]] specification across Intel platforms

* Intel Trace Analyzer and Collector - a graphical tool for understanding MPI application behavior, finding bottlenecks and errors in parallel cluster applications based on Intel architecture

* Intel Cluster Checker – Prepackaged checks to diagnose cluster health, functionality and performance. They are accessible via API to embed capabilities into applications.

* Intel Distribution for Python – a [[Python (programming language)|Python]] distribution using Intel Performance libraries to boost performance of [[NumPy]], [[SciPy]], [[scikit-learn]], [[Pandas (software)]] and other packages.
