The IWOCL 2026 program is live!

The 14th International Workshop on OpenCL and SYCL is coming to Heilbronn, Germany this May 6–8, and the full conference program has just been published at iwocl.org.

This year's lineup is packed. Whether you're working on heterogeneous HPC, GPU portability, or the future of open compute standards, this is the event for you.

KernelFoundry: Hardware-aware evolutionary GPU kernel optimization

Optimizing GPU kernels presents a significantly greater challenge for large language models (LLMs) than standard code generation tasks, as it requires understanding hardware architecture, parallel …

Someone has approached #Meshroom with a #SYCL implementation of the DepthMap part of the pipeline, which was restricted to #NVIDIA Hardware in the past.

This approach could enable Intel & AMD GPUs (and even CPUs) to execute Meshroom.

First tests show comparable results to the #CUDA implementation and I'm very excited!

OpenCL, SYCL и матрицы

В данной статье я описываю свой опыт разработки приложений с OpenCL/SYCL. Вычисления на видеокартах ассоциируются преимущественно с графикой, научными вычислениями и с недавних пор с нейросетями. Но чаще всего с графикой. Тем не менее, графические процессоры обладают свойствами, за счёт которых их очень удобно использовать в задачах, напрямую не связанных с перечисленным выше. И главное из этих свойств – массовый параллелизм. Самый краткий ввод в гетерогенное программирование: у нас есть две роли — хост и девайс , задача хоста – формировать задачи и отдавать их на девайс, в то время как задача девайса обработать их и вернуть результат. При этом хост и девайс могут быть одним вычислительным устройством (это не обязательно CPU + GPU, так как CPU может отдавать задачи сам себе).

This is really weird : the #sycl examples from #inteloneAPI all work but the #openMP @openmp_arb examples fail to offload to the integrated GPU (the device appears not to exist) even though it is there and working and the user is part of the group that use the device for compute. I wonder if I have to purge from #apt and install via the #Intel installer to get a missing component (?driver)

Messing with #sycl via adaptive cpp. I would say that it's the second fastest gpgpu system to get started with (julia is the fastest..it installs cuda for you and has a repl+notebook ui). I had "hello world" offloading to the gpu as fast as I could paste the installation commands (under ubuntu). I then changed the cmake for my codebase to support a sycl target and had everything working shortly. Its awesome to be able to run my heavily templated c++ code on the gpu w/o much effort.
