====== SPM 2015/16 Exams ======

===== Project =====

The text for the project is available on [[spm1516project|this page]]

===== PHI performance =====
In the lessons we stated performance of Xeon PHI is 2 to 4 times smaller than the performance observed on the host machine Xeon processors. 

Actually, performance scale factor varies depending on the kind of code executed. Code with quite a number of branches may experience 10x and more slowdown w.r.t. host Xeon processor. 

As far as the project report is concerned, please report **scalability** on PHI and times achieved when using parallelism degree equal to one on both Xeon PHI and host Xeon processor.



===== Access to Xeon PHI =====
