SUMMARY:Portable Accelerator Programming with SYCL
DESCRIPTION:SummarySYCL is an open standard for programming heterogeneous a
 rchitectures in ISO C++. This webinar will give a high-level overview of t
 he SYCL programming language and the software ecosystem to write and tune 
 SYCL code for different accelerator architectures. We will focus on GPUs a
 nd discuss how we can provide SYCL performance portability across hardware
  from different vendors, including Intel, Nvidia, and AMD GPUs, by employi
 ng a single-source model based on a modern C++ standard. As an example of 
 complex scientific software, we will demonstrate briefly how the Amber mol
 ecular dynamics software was ported from CUDA to SYCL using Intel oneAPI s
 oftware development tools and Intel Xe architecture GPUs. We will discuss 
 numerical results and benchmark data that demonstrate the accuracy and per
 formance of the SYCL implementation on data center and consumer-grade GPU 
 hardware.InstructorAndreas Goetz is an associate research scientist at SDS
 C, where he leads a research group in Quantum- and AI-enabled computationa
 l Chemistry, working at the intersection of chemistry, life sciences, and 
 scientific computing. His research draws on quantum mechanics, statistical
  mechanics, molecular dynamics, and machine learning approaches to enable 
 simulations of complex molecular systems on massively parallel computer ar
 chitectures. He is a contributing author to the ADF and QUICK quantum chem
 istry software and the AMBER software for biomolecular simulations, which 
 are widely used in academic and industrial research. He is also co-founder
  of ATTMOS Inc., which develops technologies for computational drug discov
 ery. Andreas enjoys training the next generation of scientists in software
  engineering and numerical simulation methods via lectures, workshops, and
  the supervision of interns. He is the author of over 80 scientific public
 ations and editor of the book 'Electronic Structure Calculations on Graphi
 cs Processing Units. Before joining SDSC in 2009, Andreas performed postdo
 ctoral research at the VU University in Amsterdam and obtained his undergr
 aduate and Ph.D. degrees in chemistry from the Friedrich-Alexander Univers
 ity in Erlangen, Germany.See a full list of SDSC's upcoming training and e
