TheSun-Intel alliancehas introduced
Intel Threading Building Blocks (TBB) for the Solaris operating
system using Sun Studio.
TBB makes it easier to develop
threaded applications for newer multi-core processors,
including Quad-Core Intel Xeon processors.
TBB is available through an open source project and has become
the most widely used tool for software developers using C++ to take
advantage of the power of multi-core processors, said the
partners.
"Now, Sun Studio with TBB makes it possible to quickly harness
the full processing power of Solaris platforms," they said.
