In this video, Michael Wolfe from The Portland Group discusses heterogeneous programming for HPC.

Topics:

What's the distinction between heterogeneous computing andheterogeneous programming?
Why is heterogeneousprogramming hard?
What's the right level of abstraction for heterogeneous programming?
What are the existing methods for heterogeneous programming?Do they really solve this problem?
What heterogeneous systems are likely to survive in HPC?

Wolfe recently became a guest contributor on insideHPC and we're looking forward to more discussions in the coming months.
