Visual Fortran Compiler for Windows
Intel Visual Fortran Compiler for Windows accelerates your software
development, shortens your configuration time and improves your software
performance while preserving your development investment.
Standard and Professional Edition
The Standard Edition features the compiler, Intel Array Visualizer and the
Intel Debugger among other capabilities. The Professional Edition provides
all the components licensed in the Standard Edition and also includes the
IMSL Fortran Library 5.0 for Windows.
 |
Professional Edition: The IMSL libraries are a comprehensive set of
mathematical and statistical functions that programmers can embed
into their software applications. IMSL provides high-performance
computing software to develop sophisticated numerical analysis
applications.
The IMSL Fortran Library 5.0 integrates the
world-renowned IMSL F90 library and parallel processing features
with the IMSL FORTRAN 77 library into a single, cohesive package.
This includes new powerful and flexible interface modules that allow
for the use of advanced Fortran syntax and optional arguments
throughout, while still providing full backward compatibility. |
These interface modules simplify and speed
coding while improving quality by reducing the likelihood of mistakes. They
also facilitate development of simpler Fortran applications while providing
full depth and control for experienced programmers. The IMSL Fortran Library
5.0 also incorporates a number of valuable new numerical algorithms and
expanded support for SMP parallel processing.
Features
-
Compatibility with Compaq Visual Fortran*, which makes it easier to
move and preserve your investment in software development.
-
Advanced optimization features for the latest Intel processors to
help deliver outstanding application performance.
-
Integrates into Microsoft Visual C++ .NET development environment.
-
Professional Edition includes IMSL Fortran Library 5.0.
-
Stores floating-point operations in a highly optimized,
floating-point emulation library so performance-sensitive applications
can run at higher execution speeds.
-
Improves application performance dramatically by using the Inter
procedural Optimization (IPO) in programs containing many small- or
medium-sized functions that are used frequently, especially for programs
that contain calls within loops.
-
Takes advantage of the processor micro architecture by more
effectively using instruction paging and cache memory. Makes better
branch predictions with the Profile Guided Optimization (PGO) by
reducing instruction-cache thrashing, reorganizing code layout and
reducing branch mispredictions.
-
Hides memory access latency with data prefetching which moves
prefetch instructions for selected data items into cache memory. This
can provide significant performance improvement for applications that
are more compute intensive.
-
Increases development efficiency, reduces defects, and increases
application performance performance with the Compiler Code-Coverage
Tool.
-
Speeds QA testing with the Compiler Test-Prioritization Tool.
-
Supports multithreading applications with OpenMP* API version 2.0 and
auto-parallelization.
-
Supports the new Intel® Extended Memory 64 Technology (Intel® EM64T).
-
Supports the Intel® Debugger
Standards Compliance: Comply with ANSI C/C++ and ISO C/C++
standards with support found in Intel C++ Compiler for Windows.
Intel Debugger: Use the command-line and GUI-based Intel Debugger
that is executable on native IA-32 and Itanium 2 processors, and on Intel
Extended Memory 64 Technology (Intel EM64T). It can be used to debug C++ and
Fortran applications that are composed of modules built by one or more
compilers (including the Intel compilers) producing Microsoft Symbol and
Type information. In addition, it manages multiple threads, displaying
thread-specific data and user-selectable threads.
