oneAPI

Overview

oneAPI is an industry initiative to create a single, unified, cross-architecture programming model for CPUs and accelerator architectures. Based on industry standards and its open development approach, the initiative will help streamline software development for high performance computers, increase performance and provide specifications for efficient and diverse architecture programming.

In the oneAPI Center of Excellence, Intel teams up with the Innovative Computing Lab to spearhead the development of numerical linear algebra functionality in the oneAPI ecosystem by deploying a DPC++ kernels in the Ginkgo linear algebra library. This allows to run Ginkgo and applications that use Ginkgo’s functionality on any hardware supporting the oneAPI industry standard, including embedded Intel GPUs and Intel’s discrete GPUs that are expected to power the Aurora supercomputer.
