Abstraction of Programming Models Across Multi-Core and GPGPU Architectures
Thomas Beach, Ian J. Grimstead, DAVID W. WALKER, Nicholas J. Avis · Advances in parallel computing · 2010
Work in the field of application acceleration devices is showing great promise, but still remains a tool largely for computer scientists with domain knowledge, given the complexity of porting existing algorithms to new architectures or environments. Such porting is hindered by the lack of abstraction available.
