Parallel algorithms are popular method of increasing system performance. Apart from showing their properties using asymptotic analysis, proof-of-concept implementation and practical experiments are often required. In order to speed up the development and provide simple and easily accessible testing environment that enables execution of reliable experiments, the paper proposes a platform with multi-core computational accelerator: Intel Xeon Phi, and modern programming language: Java. The article includes the description of integration Java with Xeon Phi, as well as detailed information about all of the software components. Finally, the set of tests proves, that proposed platform is able to prepare reliable experiments of parallel algorithms implemented in modern programming language.
