商品描述

This book provides an introduction to both heterogeneous execution and managed runtime environments (MREs) by discussing the current trends in computing and the evolution of both hardware and software. To this end, it first details how heterogeneous hardware differs from traditional CPUs, what their key components are and what challenges they pose to heterogenous execution. The most ubiquitous ones are General Purpose Graphics Processing Units (GPGPUs) which are pervasive across a plethora of application domains ranging from graphics processing to training of AI and Machine Learning models. Subsequently, current solutions on programming heterogeneous MREs are described, highlighting for each current existing solution the associated advantages and disadvantages.

This book is written for scientists and advanced developers who want to understand how choices at the programming API level can affect performance and/or programmability of heterogeneous hardware accelerators, how to improve the underlying runtime systems in order to seamlessly integrate diverse hardware resources, or how to exploit acceleration techniques from their preferred programming languages.

 

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書介紹了異構執行和受控執行環境（MREs）的概念，並討論了計算領域的當前趨勢以及硬體和軟體的演進。首先，詳細介紹了異構硬體與傳統CPU的區別，以及其主要組成部分和對異構執行所帶來的挑戰。其中最常見的是通用圖形處理單元（GPGPUs），它們在眾多應用領域中廣泛存在，從圖形處理到人工智慧和機器學習模型的訓練。接著，介紹了當前的異構MREs編程解決方案，並突出了每個解決方案的優點和缺點。

本書針對科學家和高級開發人員撰寫，旨在幫助他們了解在編程API層面的選擇如何影響異構硬體加速器的性能和可編程性，如何改進底層運行時系統以無縫整合各種硬體資源，以及如何從他們偏好的編程語言中利用加速技術。
