Application Porting Optimization on Heterogeneous Systems

摘要

Modern heterogeneous computer systems offer an exceptional computational potential, but require specific knowledge and experience on the part of the programmer to fully realize it. In this paper we explore different approaches to the task of adapting an application to the heterogeneous computer system. We provide performance evaluation of the test application ported using those approaches. We also evaluate the difficulty and time investment required to implement those approaches in relation to performance improvements they offer.
