Algorithm and Data Structures for Xeon Phi

Algorithms and data structures appropriate for Xeon Phi are active fields of research and deserve a book on their own. This chapter will touch only on some common algorithm and data structure optimization techniques that I have found useful for common technical computing applications. These algorithms will definitely evolve as we gain more experience with the hardware. This chapter does not derive the algorithms but rather focuses on optimization techniques to achieve good performance on Xeon Phi. For example, I assume familiarity with Monte Carlo simulation techniques and the algorithms used ...
