JolokiaC++: An Annotation Based Compiler Framework for GPGPUs
Vibha D. Patel, Sanjeev Aggarwal, Amey Karkare · 2014
We present JolokiaC++, an annotation based compiler framework which generates high quality CUDA (Compute Unified Device Architecture) code for GPUs. Our contributions include: (1) developing explicit and implicit annotations with illustrations of their use in C++, (2) showing the utility of these annotations by providing comparison code snippets, which demonstrates the ease of programming and performance gains, (3) evaluating their effectiveness on kernels like Blacks holes, Matrix-Vector multiplication, Matrix-Matrix multiplication, Jacobi 1D & 2D, Heat 2D, Vector Addition and Convolution.
