ABSTRACT:
The talk will provide an overview of the challenges posed by physical limitations of the underlying silicon-based CMOS technology, introduce the next generation of emerging machine architectures and the anticipated effect on the way we program machines in the future.
For the past 25 years, a single model of parallel programming (largely bulk-synchronous MPI), has for the most part been sufficient to permit translation of this into reasonable parallel programs for more complex applications. In 2004, however, a confluence of events changed forever the architectural landscape that underpinned our current assumptions about what to optimize for when we design new algorithms and applications. This talk will describe the challenges of programming future computing systems. It will then provide some highlights from the search for durable programming abstractions more closely track emerging computer technology trends so that when we convert our codes over, they will last through the next decade.
