SYCL for Safety Practitioners – An Introduction
“There are many resources across the internet on functional safety in software, covering a subsantial range of topics. What I recognized is that there are no resources for safety practitioners and programmers looking at developing applications with SYCL™ that are required to meet functional safety requirements. This is the first in a series of blog posts that will give readers...

Managing the Power and Promise of High-Performance Computing
“There is a momentum of movement towards SYCL, a Khronos® open-standard alternative, providing many of the standard C++ programming needs of scientists and other programmers.
Companies can now use the same standard programming model with non-Nvidia processors, as well as Nvidia GPUs. This sets a new high-water mark for standardized heterogeneous computing, ideal for enterprises that employ accelerated processors. The...

Podcast: Ronan Keryell and Jeff Hammond talk SYCL
Ronan Keryell, principal software engineer at Xilinx, and Jeff Hammond, principal engineer at Intel, explain why open collaboration — modeled through open source and open standards — is key to solving some of today’s biggest challenges in research and industry, revealing some of the misconceptions, or least understood aspects, along the way. Then they explore the value of open languages...

Continuous Development in Tomorrow’s Automotive Software
“ADAS is constantly evolving, driven by legislation and improvements in both advanced vision algorithms and processing hardware. By fully exploiting SYCL (a C++ open standard from The Khronos Group), which is familiar to any software developer, developers can rapidly develop and maintain their applications without using special proprietary programming languages, which are bespoke for hardware and impossible to maintain or...
