Short summary
We introduced some methods to port our Global Nested Air Quality Prediction Modeling System (GNAQPMS) model on Intel Knight Landing (KNL). In this paper, we introduced both common and specific methods to accelerate out model better. With the guidance of the resources material on Intel Websites (http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/processors/xeon-phi.html) and relative books, this paper could be an example for the model developers to take advantage of KNL for their model.
