Learn how to accelerate C++ programs using data parallelism and SYCL.

This open access book enables C++ programmers to be at the forefront of this exciting and important development that is helping to push computing to new levels. This updated second edition is full of practical advice, detailed explanations, and code examples to illustrate key topics.

SYCL enables access to parallel resources in modern accelerated heterogeneous systems. Now, a single C++ application can use any combination of devices-including GPUs, CPUs, FPGAs, and ASICs-that are suitable to the problems at hand.

This book teaches data-parallel programming using C++ with SYCL and walks through everything needed to program accelerated systems. The book begins by introducing data parallelism and foundational topics for effective use of SYCL. Later chapters cover advanced topics, including error handling, hardware-specific programming, communication and synchronization, and memory model considerations.

All source code for the examples used in this book is freely available on GitHub. The examples are written in modern SYCL and are regularly updated to ensure compatibility with multiple compilers.


What You Will Learn

Accelerate C++ programs using data-parallel programmingUse SYCL and C++ compilers that support SYCLWrite portable code for accelerators that is vendor and device agnosticOptimize code to improve performance for specific acceleratorsBe poised to benefit as new accelerators appear from many vendors
Who This Book Is For

New data-parallel programming and computer programmers interested in data-parallel programming using C++


This is an open access book.

About the Author: James Reinders is an Engineer at Intel Corporation with more than four decades of experience in parallel computing and is an author/co-author/editor of more than 10 technical books related to parallel programming. He has a passion for system optimization and teaching. He has had the great fortune to help make contributions to three of the world's fastest computers (#1 on the TOP500 list) as well as many other supercomputers and software developer tools.Ben Ashbaugh is a Software Architect at Intel Corporation, where he has worked for over 20 years developing software drivers and compilers for Intel graphics products. For the past 10 years, he has focused on parallel programming models for general-purpose computation on graphics processors, including SYCL and the DPC++ compiler. He is active in the Khronos SYCL, OpenCL, and SPIR working groups; helping to define industry standards for parallel programming; and he has authored numerous extensions to expose unique Intel GPU features.James Brodman is a Principal Engineer at Intel Corporation, working on runtimes and compilers for parallel programming, and he is one of the architects of DPC++. He has a PhD in Computer Science from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.Michael Kinsner is a Principal Engineer at Intel Corporation, developing parallel programming languages and compilers for a variety of architectures. He contributes extensively to spatial architectures and programming models and is an Intel representative within The Khronos Group where he works on the SYCL and OpenCL industry standards for parallel programming. He has a PhD in Computer Engineering from McMaster University and is passionate about programming models that cross architectures while still enabling performance.John Pennycook is a Software Enabling and Optimization Architect at Intel Corporation, focused on enabling developers to fully utilize the parallelism available in modern processors. He is experienced in optimizing and parallelizing applications from a range of scientific domains, and previously served as Intel's representative on the steering committee for the Intel eXtreme Performance User's Group (IXPUG). He has a PhD in Computer Science from the University of Warwick. His research interests are varied, but a recurring theme is the ability to achieve application "performance portability" across different hardware architectures.Xinmin Tian is an Intel Fellow and Compiler Architect at Intel Corporation and serves as Intel's representative on OpenMP Architecture Review Board (ARB). He has been driving OpenMP offloading, vectorization, and parallelization compiler technologies for Intel architectures. His current focus is on LLVM-based OpenMP offloading, SYCL/DPC++ compiler optimizations for CPUs/GPUs, and tuning HPC/AI application performance. He has a PhD in Computer Science from Tsinghua University, holds 27 US patents, has published over 60 technical papers with over 1300+ citations of his work, and has co-authored two books that span his expertise.

Additional Delivery Information (and some really important bits):

UK Delivery

Orders for delivery in the UK are normally despatched by Royal Mail, using the RM 48 Tracked Service with most orders delivered to you within a few days of placing your order with us. For larger parcels, Courier and Signed For delivery services may be used. Signed Books are shipped in our specially made book mailing cartons, with the books themselves wrapped in paper to protect them. Sometimes we may ship your order in several parts, particularly if you have 'Pre-Order' titles in your order or titles which are held in stock with our publishing partners.

The Really Important Bit: Because we use tracked, courier and signed for delivery services, please use an address at which your parcel can be received during the normal working day, for example, you may want to have your order delivered to your work address if you're not at home during the day.

First Item @ £3.75 (sometimes a shipping supplement may be added for particularly heavy books or specific postcodes*)
2 Items & over @ £5.00 in total

Another Really Important Bit: There are a number of Postcodes in the UK for which we will need to charge a shipping supplement, this will be calculated once we know the size and weight of the shipment. For these orders we will contact customers to agree a suitable and economic method of shipping. There may also be additional time required for delivery to some areas of the United Kingdom. Where possible, we will ship book orders (under 2kg) by Royal Mail to all UK postcodes. Large multiple book orders and books over 2kg are often shipped via APC Overnight or similar, regardless of Postcode.
