MARC Program Achievements
The Many-Core Application Research Community Program has exceeded Intel’s expectations with broad participation, many contributions and research results
−The world-wide research community enhanced our understanding of many-core architecture and usage
−100+ Institutions, 150+ research projects and 100s of participants
−Software research with SCC included Barrelfish, X10, Bare Metal, SW Managed Coherence, Comm libraries, Message Passing Interfaces, OpenMP and more!
−Numerous events hosted and well over 80 papers published−More than a dozen institutions created active SCC-based

MARC Program Transition
• Many core Intel® Xeon Phi™ Products are launched and gaining increasing use− #1 SuperComputer on Top500 -> Milkway-2 (Tianhe-2)
−Includes 48,000 Intel Xeon Phi Coprocessors!− #6 TACC Stampede
−Includes 6800+ Intel Xeon Phi Coprocessors
• MARC program advanced community knowledge and prepped many engineers and scientists for today’s “many core era”
• What was the future has become reality!• So as planned Intel will end active MARC and SCC support in December 2013
So What’s Next for Intel Manycore Computing?
