The following downloads can be used together with the IBM SDK for
Multicore Acceleration.
Distributed Image Management for Linux Clusters
The update to the Distributed Image Management for Linux Clusters,
a scalable image management tool that allows blades to run a Linux
distribution over the network without a local disk. Supports blades for
IBM BladeCenter with the Cell/B.E. processor, including the QS20 and
recently announced QS21. [Updated: 10/25/07]
IBM
Assembly Visualizer for Cell Broadband Engine on alphaWorks
This tool provides a graphical user interface (GUI) for viewing the
static analysis results of a Synergistic Processing Element (SPE) program
and enables safe, interactive hand-tuning of assembly.
IBM Dynamic Application Virtualization
The update for the IBM Dynamic Application Virtualization --
technology that enables computationally intensive applications to take
advantage of accelerated libraries on remote, back-end systems (including
Cell/B.E. systems), reducing time to deployment and disruption to business
-- now offers support for Linux clients and Java client applications; a
semantics verifier; and a service broker that can manage requests across
multiple computation nodes. [Updated: 01/10/08]
IBM Full-System Simulator for the Cell Broadband Engine Processor
Version 3.0 of the IBM Full-System Simulator for the Cell Broadband
Engine Processor, a full-system simulation infrastructure and tools for
the Cell Broadband Engine processor. Provides a new, fast functional
simulation mode and improved performance modeling of the memory subsystem
for SMP environments. [Updated: 01/09/08]
IBM
Interactive Ray Tracer Demo on alphaWorks
The Interactive Ray Tracer for Cell Broadband Engine demonstrates
the power of the Cell Broadband Engine for interactively ray tracing
high-definition television (HDTV) images of complex scenes. Interactive
Ray Tracer can run on the PlayStation 3, QS20, and QS21 Cell Broadband
Engine-based platforms. A single Linux binary is supplied that renders the
provided scene. Interactive Ray Tracer serves as an example to those
interested in the digital media, graphic rendering, and high-performance
computing aspects of the Cell Broadband Engine's capabilities.
Visual Performance Analyzer (VPA) on alphaWorks
Visual Performance Analyzer (VPA) is an Eclipse-based performance
visualization toolkit. It consists of five major components: Profile
Analyzer, Code Analyzer, Pipeline Analyzer, Counter Analyzer, and Trace
Analyzer.
IBM XL C/C++ for Multicore Acceleration for Linux
IBM XL C/C++ for Multicore Acceleration for Linux is an advanced,
high-performance cross-compiler that is tuned for the Cell Broadband
Engine Architecture. The compiler requires the GNU Compiler Collection
(GCC) toolchain for the CBEA, which provides tools for cross-assembling
and cross-linking applications for both the PPE and SPE. Evaluation
versions of XL C/C++ for Multicore Acceleration for Linux on x86 Systems,
V9.0, and XL C/C++ for Multicore Acceleration for Linux on System p, V9.0
are available for
download.
IBM XL Fortran for Multicore Acceleration for Linux on System p
IBM XL Fortran for Multicore Acceleration for Linux on System p is
an advanced, high-performance cross-compiler that is tuned for the Cell
Broadband Engine Architecture. The compiler provides full support for the
Fortran 95, Fortran 90, and FORTRAN 77 language standards and partial
support for the Fortran 2003 standard. This compiler can be used for
developing complex, computationally-intensive programs, including
inter-language calls with C and C++ programs. Evaluation version of XL
Fortran for Multicore Acceleration for Linux on System p, V11.1 is
available for
download.
