1) Message boards : API : Using Intel Math Kernel Library and Intel Xeon Phis with BOINC (Message 63269) Posted 28 Jul 2015 by Andrew Ekstrom Post: I have a home computer than has a pair of Xeon Phi coprocessors. These coprocessors work in a similar fashion to a GPU but, are easier to program for. My Phis have a total of 456 processing threads that can be used separately or in parallel by BOINC. If someone uses Intel's Math Kernel Library, there is an automatic offload option for these Phi's, which means there is no required extra programming at all. I'm wondering if it is possible to use the MKL with BOINC. If so, I'd be able to run through large data simulations in little to no time at all.
