Intel has released the first component of the Intel Parallel Studio to reach beta. The other components of Intel Parallel Studio are Intel Parallel Advisor, Intel Parallel Inspector and Intel Parallel Amplifier. Intel Parallel Composer supports Threading Building Blocks (TBB), OpenMP and other standards.

Intel has launched the first public beta of a component of its Intel Parallel Studio – the Intel Parallel Composer.

Intel, which is as responsible as any other company for the push toward parallelism with its creation of multicore processors, released the Intel Parallel Composer to beta, while the other components of Intel Parallel Studio -- Intel Parallel Advisor, Intel Parallel Inspector and Intel Parallel Amplifier -- will be released to beta in 2009, said James Reinders, chief evangelist and director of marketing for Intel's software development products.

Reinders said Intel Parallel Composer is a comprehensive set of compilers and libraries for Microsoft Visual Studio C++ developers that speeds and simplifies threading for improved productivity. It enhances the capabilities of Microsoft Visual Studio to support the entire spectrum of parallel expression and takes advantage of Intel’s latest versions of compilers and libraries for parallelism.
