Heterogeneous parallel primitives programming model

Abstract:

With the success of programming models such as OpenCL and CUDA, heterogeneous computing platforms are becoming mainstream. However, these heterogeneous systems are low-level, not composable, and their behavior is often implementation defined even for standardized programming models. In contrast, the method and system embodiments for the heterogeneous parallel primitives (HPP) programming model disclosed herein provide a flexible and composable programming platform that guarantees behavior even in the case of developing high-performance code.
