Cilk Plus/LLVM

An implementation of the Intel® Cilk™ Plus C/C++ language extensions in LLVM

Intel® Cilk™ Plus is an extension to the C and C++ languages to support data and task parallelism. It is one of the easiest, quickest way to harness the power of both multicore and vector processing. Visit cilkplus.org for details.

This project implements the Intel® Cilk™ Plus language extensions in the Clang frontend for LLVM. There are two other implementations available. A commercial version of Cilk Plus is available as part of the Intel® C++ Composer XE compiler. There is also an open source version available in the "cilkplus" branch of the GCC C/C++ compiler. More information is available on cilkplus.org.
