This week is the eighth annual International Workshop on OpenCL, SYCL, Vulkan, and SPIR-V, and the event is available online for the very first time in its history thanks to the coronavirus pandemic.

Introduction to parallel computing for scientists and engineers. Shared memory parallel architectures and programming, distributed memory, message-passing data-parallel architectures, and programming.

Modern personal computing devices feature multiple cores. This is not only true for desktops, laptops, tablets and smartphones, but also for small embedded devices like the Raspberry Pi. In order to ...

In high performance computing, machine learning, and a growing set of other application areas, accelerated, heterogeneous systems are becoming the norm. With that state come several parallel ...

There is always the promise of using more computing power for a single task. Your computer has multiple CPUs now, surely. Your video card has even more. Your computer is probably networked to a slew ...
