"Intel® TBB provided us with
optimized code that we did not
have to develop or maintain for
critical system services. I could
assign my developers to code what
we bring to the software table—
crowd simulation software.”
Michaël Rouillé, CTO, Golaem
Simplify Parallelism with a Scalable Parallel Model
Intel® Threading Building Blocks (Intel® TBB) 4.2 is a widely used, award-winning C++ template
library for creating high performance, scalable parallel applications. Intel TBB is the #1 choice of
developers looking to implement cross-platform parallel applications. It automatically
determines the best thread scheduling and work distribution to efficiently use the power and
performance of multicore and many-core hardware.
Performance Scalability with Future-proofing – Intel TBB provides a simple and rapid way
of developing robust parallel applications that abstracts platform details and threading
mechanisms for performance that scales with increasing core counts.
Intel® TBB yields linear scaling in these example applications running on Intel® Xeon® processors and Intel
Xeon Phi™ coprocessors
Productivity and Reliability – Intel TBB provides abstractions that make it easier to write
scalable and reliable parallel applications with fewer lines of code.
Intel® TBB Pre-Tested Capabilities
Compatible – Compatible with multiple compilers and operating systems, Intel TBB fits within
your environment making it easy to use and maintain.
Interoperable – Multiple Intel TBB-based modules seamlessly interoperate in a user’s
application, helping avoid over subscription when other programming models are in use
