ISPC at ETH Zurich / slides

[Diego Rossinelli]

Hi Everyone,

This semester I will be teaching "HPC for Engineers" class at ETH Zurich
( http://www.vvz.ethz.ch/Vorlesungsverzeichnis/lerneinheitPre.do?lerneinheitId=104384&semkez=2016S&lang=en )

While writing this question on stackoverflow
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/35127888/hpc-programming-language-relying-on-implicit-vectorization
I discovered ISPC, and I like it very much I must confess!

I decided to teach ISPC to the class as a symmetric tool w.r.t CUDA for GPUs.
Do you have already some slides about ISPC that I can use (with appropriate acknowledgements)?

Best,

Diego

Hi Daniele.

I'd like to point out that ispc is able to emit PTX for execution on NVIDIA GPUs. The process of getting object file is somewhat involved but not more than the one for KNC.there are some examples available in examples/portable folder I think.

ISPC was mentioned and introduced in two previous lectures.

The focus of this week's lecture was ISPC:

If you have comments or errata to point out, please let me know.
 
Thanks. Best,

Diego,

Great slides!

One thing I would fix though, is the statement "ISPC is C++ with some language extensions". It's mostly C and has only very few C++ features. So it's better to change C++ to C in your statement.

Dmitry,
Thanks for the feedback!
