Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Assuming OpenCL as a standard environment for accelerator programming, we have pointed out some missing features for supporting more various accelerator architectures,and proposed OpenCL extensions. Although OpenCL has gradually become to be used for hardware description, OpenCL C is not necessarily appropriate for describing OpenCL kernels. Hence, we have designed and implemented high productivity languages for typical computations in the fields of image processing and high performance computing. In addition, we have proposed an automatic tuning method for performance parameters, which need to be adjusted for individual accelerators. The proposed method has been implemented for evaluating its performance impacts.
