Abstract

This article evaluates the scalability and productivity of six parallel programming models for heterogeneous architectures, and finds that task-based models using code and data annotations require the minimum programming effort while sustaining nearly best performance. However, achieving this result requires both extensions of programming models to control locality and granularity and proper interoperability with platform-specific optimizations.

Heterogeneous multicore parallel programming for graphics processing units
Software Development for Multi-core Computing Systems

Hybrid parallel multicore architectures based on graphics processing units (GPUs) can provide tremendous computing power. Current NVIDIA and AMD Graphics Product Group hardware display a peak performance of hundreds of gigaflops. However, exploiting ...
Implicit heterogeneous and parallel programming

Programmers are often required to develop parallel programs using new parallel languages or parallel extensions to existing languages that are different from the languages they used previously on sequential machines. As a consequence, programmers are ...
