Distributed & Heterogeneous Programming in C/C++ (DHPCC++18)
In response to the demand for heterogeneous programming models for C/C++, and the interest in driving these models in ISO C++, Distributed & Heterogeneous Programming in C/C++ includes all the programming models that have been designed to support heterogeneous programming in C and C++.
Many models now exist including SYCL, HPX, KoKKos, Raja, C++AMP, HCC, Boost.Compute, and CUDA to name a few. This conference aims to address the needs of both HPC and the consumer/embedded community where a number of C++ parallel programming frameworks have been developed to address the needs of multi-threaded and distributed applications. The C++11/14/17 International Standards have introduced new tools for parallel programming to the language, and the ongoing standardization effort is developing additional features which will enable support for heterogeneous and distributed parallelism into ISO C++ 20/23. This conference is an ideal place to discuss research in this domain, consolidate usage experience, and share new directions to support new hardware and memory models with the aim of passing that experience to ISO C and C++.
