In his talk at IWOCL 2015, JC Baratault AMD’s Senior Business Development Manager – Globlal GPU Computing Code will present on the topic of “Heterogeneous Computing: the rise of open programming frameworks”.
Abstract: Heterogeneous Computing
Code portability and scalability is the next big challenge on the road to Exascale computing. Despite the fact that GPU-based accelerators deliver great performance, most users are still reluctant to modify their codes using proprietary frameworks. AMD’s Heterogeneous Computing strategy relies on open programming standards such as C++, OpenCL, OpenMP and OpenACC. With AMD, the users are not locked to a single source vendor and can now benefit from AMD GPU accelerators on multiple vendors servers like the HP DL380 G9 and SL250a. In this session, AMD will outline the evolving technologies that show how best to enable tomorrow’s business, today. From GPU and APU technologies to server technologies – come learn about AMD’s vision of tomorrow’s data center and how you can help your customers succeed with AMD solutions.
