An Asynchronous API for Numerical Linear Algebra

Main Article Content

Andre Rigland Brodtkorb

Abstract

We present a task-parallel asynchronous API for numerical
linear algebra that utilizes multiple CPUs, multiple GPUs, or a combination of
both. Furthermore, we present a wrapper of this interface for use in MATLAB. Our
API imposes only small overheads, scales perfectly to two processor cores, and
shows even better performance when utilizing computational resources on the GPU.
