Hands-On HPC Application Development Using C++ and SYCL @SC22

Finished
10 months ago
SYCL is a programming model that lets developers
support a wide variety of devices (CPUs, GPUs, and more) from a single
code base. Given the growing heterogeneity of processor roadmaps, moving
to an open standard, platform-independent model such as SYCL is
essential for modern software developers. SYCL has the further advantage
of supporting a single-source style of programming from completely
standard C++.
In this tutorial, we will introduce SYCL and provide programmers with a solid foundation they can build on to gain mastery of this language. The main benefit of using SYCL over other heterogeneous programming models is the single programming language approach, which enables one to target multiple devices using the same programming model, and therefore to have a cleaner, portable, and more readable code.
This is a hands-on tutorial. The real learning
will happen as students write code. The format will be short
presentations followed by hands-on exercises. Hence, attendees will
require their own laptop to perform the hands-on exercises.
