    Optimizing C++ Code
    Optimizing C++ Code
    Avatar Jim Hogg May 29, 2013 May 29, 2013 05/29/13
    Hi, my name is Jim Hogg and I am a Program Manager, working in the Visual C++ compiler team in Microsoft, based on the main campus here in Redmond. More specifically, I work in the part of the compiler that optimizes your code, to make it run faster, or to make it smaller, or a mixture of the two. In this series of blog posts, I will explain ...

    Ankit Asthana Ankit Asthana May 27, 2013 May 27, 2013 05/27/13
    To introduce myself I am Ankit Asthana and I am the program manager for the backend C++ compiler. In my last few blogs I provided an introduction to what PGO is all about along with case studies which covered how Profile Guided Optimization (PGO) is used to make real world applications such as SAP NetWeaver and Windows PHP faster. In this blog...

    Image Processing with C++ AMP and the .NET Framework
    Image Processing with C++ AMP and the .NET Framework
    Avatar Eric Battalio May 21, 2013 May 21, 2013 05/21/13
    Image processing is a computational task that lends itself very well to GPU compute scenarios. In many cases the most commonly used algorithms are inherently massively parallel, with each pixel in the image being processed independently from the others. As a result, image processing toolkits have been early adopters of the new GPGPU ...

    Avatar Eric Battalio May 7, 2013 May 7, 2013 05/7/13
    Recently, some of our customers reported a bug in Visual Studio 2012 Update 2 that breaks Windows XP targeting with C++ in some scenarios.
