Getting Started with Cell Superscalar

Need help optimizing your code for the Cell? The Barcelona SuperComputing Center labs are here to help; their Cell Superscalar (CellSs) framework aids in exploiting parallelism of a sequential program. Check out this article about how to install and get started using CellSs.

Cell/B.E. Open Source Project

OpenCV on the Cell

OpenCV is a computer vision open source library developed by Intel. OpenCV includes various features such as object identification, segmentation, face recognition, gesture detection, and motion tracking. Cell/B.E. is well suited for this type of vision computing processing, so Fixstars makes available "OpenCV on the Cell" for optimizing OpenCV on PS3.

Cell ToolKit

CTK is an open source C/C++ tool kit library for Cell/B.E. CTK is designed to improve Cell programming efficiency by making various utilities available. For example, CTK makes available synchronized queues for core messages, and SPE task structure for quick parallel execution units. CTK also realizes "write-once run everywhere" by making API sets available for libspe, libspe2, and Toshiba SPE library environments.
