Date: Wednesday, November 18, 2015, 05:30 PM - 07:00 PM
Room: Hilton Salon C
Type: Birds of a Feather
Description: OpenACC has had increased adoption across heterogeneous systems. Recently OpenACC compiler vendors are targeting architectures beyond GPU. Valuable user feedback have helped drive improvements to both standard and implementation. We expect OpenACC 2.5 to be complete along with the new APIs for tools added to 2.5 and will present the features at the BoF. As in previous years, this BoF invites the user community to discuss newer features for 3.0. Additionally, we will present exciting outcomes from Hackathons that OpenACC hosted around the world; users and developers spent intense weeks with teams porting scalable applications including production codes on accelerators.
