The Intel® System Studio 2018 Update 2 suite provides a rich set of tools to help you in each step of your application development and performance. Intel® System Studio comes in three editions.

• Composer Edition includes application development tools with compilers, performance libraries, and parallel models optimized to build fast parallel code.
• Professional Edition includes the application development, profiling and analysis tools with performance profilers to design, build, and tune fast parallel code.
• Ultimate Edition includes the application development, profiling, analysis, and hardware system/platform bring-up tools.

You can find the most current versions of documentation for these products on the Intel® Developer Zone from the Intel® Software Documentation Library: https://software.intel.com/en-us/documentation.

This documentation bundle is designed to help developers who cannot or prefer not to use the web-based product documentation. The documentation is included in a downloadable package to allow you to find everything in a single location.

The bundle includes almost all of the product documentation created for all the operating systems and programming languages supported in Intel® System Studio 2018 Update 2.  A small subset of  documents for some products are available only on the Intel® Developer Zone or on the systems where the Intel developer tools were installed.

The following table will help you locate product documentation you need in this bundle. Assuming you start from the ..\documentation_2018\<locale>\.. directory, you will find complete documentation for each product in the directories indicated in the table (<locale> indicates the content language; for example, en indicates English content). In most cases, there are subdirectories beneath the directories shown in the table and you need to launch the index.htm file to view the documentation.
