Abstract:Programming heterogeneous parallel systems can be extremely complex because a single system may include multiple different parallelism models, instruction sets, and memory hierarchies, and different systems use different combinations of these features. We propose a carefully designed parallel abstraction of heterogeneous hardware-a hierarchical dataflow graph with shared memory and vector instructions-that is able to capture the parallelism in a wide range of popular parallel hardware. We use this abstraction,… Show more
