For anyone else who hadn't heard of this... In designing the second-generation Intel Xeon Phi chip, we created a massively multicore processor that is available in a self-boot socket. This eliminates the need to run an OS on a separate host and pass data across a PCIe* slot. (However, for those who prefer using the latest Intel Xeon Phi chip as a co-processor, a PCIe-card-version will be available shortly.) https://software.intel.com/en-us/blogs/2016/06/20/how-xeon-phi-processors-benefit-machine-and-deep-learning-apps-frameworks https://software.intel.com/en-us/blogs/2016/06/20/how-xeon-p... And if anyone knows of a "KNL for dummies" or similar please let me know.
