NCSA to host FREE summer courses on heterogeneous programming
NCSA will host two courses offered by the Virtual School of Computational Science and Engineering (VSCSE) this summer: Programming Heterogeneous Parallel Computing Systems and…
StarPU: Unified Runtime System for Heterogeneous Multicore Architectures
StarPU’s GCC plug-in allows programmers to annotate C code to describe tasks and their implementations, as well as memory buffers that are passed to the tasks. Each task may have one or more implementations, such as CPU implementations or implementations written in OpenCL.
GPU Systems extended New Libra SDK to Major Operating Systems and Programming Languages
The GPU Systems just released new version of the Libra Platform & SDK with enhanced support for developers to uniformly accelerate software applications across major operating systems, Windows, Mac and Linux.
Two upcoming AMD OpenCL Programming Webinars
AMD excited to bring a guest presenter and well known GPGPU guru, Rob Farber, to deliver a series of three OpenCL webinars that accompany his 9 AMD sponsored OpenCL article series
Seamlessly portable applications: Managing the diversity of modern heterogeneous systems
In this work, we propose a technique to effectively decouple applications from their accelerator-specific parts, respectively code. These parts are only linked on demand and thereby an application can be made portable across systems with different accelerators.
AMD VP Joe Macri keynote on Heterogeneous Systems Architecture (HSA)
AMD engineers were working towards making the processing capability of the company’s accelerated processing units (APUs) as accessible to programmers as the CPU is today using heterogeneous systems architecture (HSA)
Efficient shallow water simulations on GPUs: Implementation, visualization, verification, and validation
In this paper, we present an efficient implementation of a state-of-the-art high-resolution explicit scheme for the shallow water equations on graphics processing units.
Using explicit platform descriptions to support programming of heterogeneous many-core systems
We show various usage scenarios of our PDL and demonstrate the effectiveness of our framework for a commonly used scientific kernel and a financial application on different configurations of a state-of-the-art CPU/GPU system.
Welcome to the Jungle: Future of Heterogeneous Supercomputing
In the twilight of Moore’s Law, the transitions to multicore processors, GPU computing, and HaaS cloud computing are not separate trends, but aspects of a single trend – mainstream computers from desktops to ‘smartphones’ are being permanently transformed into heterogeneous supercomputer clusters.
Heterogeneous Systems Architecture: AMD Dumps “Fusion” Brand
Advanced Micro Devices said Thursday that from now on it would call its Fusion system architecture (FSA) as heterogeneous system architecture (HSA).
