Event/Course Description

As the diversity of hardware accelerators increases, and CPUs keep adding more cores, it becomes increasingly important to  write software that can run in a heterogeneous environment.  This  training will introduce you to Kokkos, a programming model that  allows you to write code that can run on CPUs, GPUs, and other  accelerators.  
Kokkos is a C++ library that provides abstractions for parallel  programming, and can generate code for different hardware  platforms. 

Learning Objectives 

When you complete this training, you will: 

  • understand the principles of the Kokkos programming model;
  • be able to write parallel code that can run on CPUs, GPUs, and other accelerators;
  • know about relevant execution patterns and how to implement them with Kokkos;
  • be able to handle data transfers between the host and the device. 

This training is for you if you want to develop software that can  run on CPUs, GPUs, and and other accelerators.
