Automatic code generation and tuning for stencil kernels on modern shared memory architectures

In this paper, we present Patus, a code generation and auto-tuning framework for stencil computations targeted at multi- and manycore processors, such as multicore CPUs and graphics processing units. Patus, which stands for "Parallel Autotuned Stencils,” generates a compute kernel from a specification of the stencil operation and a strategy which describes the parallelization and optimization to be applied, and leverages the autotuning methodology to optimize strategy-specific parameters for the given hardware architectur

Proceedings of the 3rd International Workshop on Polyhedral Compilation Techniques

IMPACT 2013 in Berlin, Germany (in conjuction with HiPEAC 2013) is the third workshop in a series of international workshops on polyhedral compilation techniques. The previous workshops were held in Chamonix, France (2011) in conjuction with CGO 2011 and Paris, France (2012) in conjuction with HiPEAC 2012
