Data Parallel C++ Mastering DPC++ for Programming of Heterogeneous Systems using C++ and SYCL (pdf)

Description

Data parallelism in C++ enables access to parallel resources in a modern heterogeneous system, freeing you from being locked into any particular computing device. Now a single C++ application can use any combination of devices—including GPUs, CPUs, FPGAs and AI ASICs—that are suitable to the problems at hand.

This book begins by introducing data parallelism and foundational topics for effective use of the SYCL standard from the Khronos Group and Data Parallel C++ (DPC++), the open source compiler used in this book.  Later chapters cover advanced topics including error handling, hardware-specific programming, communication and synchronization, and memory model considerations.
Data Parallel C++ provides you with everything needed to use SYCL for programming heterogeneous systems.

What You’ll Learn

• Accelerate C++ programs using data-parallel programming
• Target multiple device types (e.g. CPU, GPU, FPGA)
• Use SYCL and SYCL compilers
• Connect with computing’s heterogeneous future via Intel’s oneAPI initiative

Who This Book Is For

Those new data-parallel programming and computer programmers interested in data-parallel programming using C++.
