Parallel algorithms are popular method of\udincreasing system performance. Apart from showing their\udproperties using asymptotic analysis, proof-of-concept\udimplementation and practical experiments are often\udrequired. In order to speed up the development and\udprovide simple and easily accessible testing environment\udthat enables execution of reliable experiments, the paper\udproposes a platform with multi-core computational\udaccelerator: Intel Xeon Phi, and modern programming\udlanguage: Java. The article includes the description of\udintegration Java with Xeon Phi, as well as detailed\udinformation about all of the software components. Finally,\udthe set of tests proves, that proposed platform is able to\udprepare reliable experiments of parallel algorithms\udimplemented in modern programming language
