Overview
Nowadays most HPC systems are heterogeneous and use accelerators. OneAPI is a standardized and portable programming model adapted to heterogeneous computing. In this course, Intel's oneAPI implementation will be used, which supports two portable methods of heterogeneous computing: C++ with SYCL and OpenMP for C, C++, and Fortran.
Join us at this training event lead by Intel oneAPI certified instructors. Learn how to accelerate your code while avoiding vendor lock-in. Write your code once and use it anywhere.
Learning outcome
At the end of this training, participants will be able to:
- understand the importance of using open standards for programming in heterogeneous systems
- use the oneAPI SYCL standard to offload to various accelerators including CPU and GPU
- profile code running on various accelerators and assess their performance
- use the compatibility tool to help port CUDA to SYCL
- know how to use the Intel DevCloud as a ready to use sandbox in developing their codes
- know how to use the software and hardware environment on the VSC-5 cluster
