Are your Windows apps underperforming? Application threads often wait too long on synchronization objects (locks), which results in processor cores being underutilized. Discover how to use the Locks and Waits analysis in Intel’s VTune Amplifier to identify and remove deadlocks: one of the most common reasons for inefficient parallel execution within a Windows application. Follow along with instructor Thomas Pantels as he demos the analysis tool and shows where to locate and enhance source code to remove deadlocks.

Multithreaded apps can perform better than single-threaded apps, but the performance improvements come with increased code complexity and overhead. By comparing and analyzing different versions of your apps with VTune Amplifier, you can decide whether this trade-off is worth it. In this course, Thomas Pantels shows how to visualize and analyze two versions of a demo C++ application that simulates house-building tasks. The first version is single threaded; the second is multithreaded. By the end of this course, you will know how to install and configure Intel’s VTune Amplifier. You will walk away knowing how to use the tool to analyze and compare both single-threaded and multithreaded Windows applications and understand the results. [Read more…]
