Intel Continues Improving Its SYCL Stack - Now Supports Ahead-Of-Time Compilation
“The Khronos SYCL standard as a single-source C++-based programming model for OpenCL is one of the exciting elements for Intel’s GPU compute plans with the forthcoming Xe graphics cards and fits into their oneAPI umbrella. They just released their SYCL Compiler and Runtimes 2019-12 release with numerous updates.”

Choosing a Good Work Group Size for SYCL
” A “work group” is a 1, 2 or 3 dimensional set of threads within the thread hierarchy and contains a set of “work items,” and each of these work items maps to a “core” in a GPU.
When using SYCL with an OpenCL device, the “work group” size often dictates the occupancy of the compute units. In order to...

Experiences with SYCL for the hydrodynamics mini-app, CloverLeaf
“We have most recently ported CloverLeaf to SYCL, and this blog post demonstrates our experiences. As a starting point, we took our Kokkos port of CloverLeaf, which was already C++ throughout, with the key computational kernels already ported to C++ lambda functions. The programming abstractions from Kokkos do differ a little to those in SYCL at a high-level, however there...

Bringing Nvidia GPU support to SYCL developers
“We are excited to announce that in 2020 we will be releasing a project that brings full support for Nvidia devices to SYCL developers. This project will be fully open source and initially includes integration with Intel’s oneAPI, however it could be integrated with other SYCL implementations. During this project our engineers have been working in conjunction with Intel’s engineers...

Intel's oneAPI Will Run Atop NVIDIA GPUs With Codeplay's Open-Source Layer
“Codeplay, which is already known for their several Vulkan / SYCL / SPIR-V initiatives, is working on a layer to run oneAPI / DPC++ / SYCL code atop NVIDIA hardware while still leveraging NVIDIA’s CUDA drivers.”
