Overview
Intel Xeon Phi coprocessors have been designed by Intel Corporation as a supplement to the Intel Xeon processor family. These computing accelerators feature the MIC (Many Integrated Core) architecture, which enables fast and energy-efficient execution of High Performance Computing (HPC) applications utilizing massive thread parallelism, vector arithmetics and streamlined memory access. The term “Many Integrated Core” serves to distinguish the Intel Xeon Phi product family from the “Multi-Core” family of Intel Xeon processors.

That processor family uses the Intel Hyper-Threading Technology (Intel HT Technology), which was developed by Intel in order to improve the performance of IA-32 processors when executing multi-threaded operating system and application code or single-threaded applications under multi-tasking environments. The technology enables a single physical processor to execute two or more separate code streams (threads) concurrently using shared execution resources.
