Victor Eijkhout: I see several problems with the state of parallel programming. For starters, we have too many different programming models, such as threading, message passing, and SIMD or SIMT ...
In the task-parallel model represented by OpenMP, the user specifies the distribution of iterations among processors and then the data travels to the computations. In data-parallel programming, the ...
This is a schematic showing data parallelism vs. model parallelism, as they relate to neural network training. Disclaimer: AAAS and EurekAlert! are not responsible for the accuracy of news releases ...
