Comparing to MobileNet V2 inference on CPU through legacy WebAssembly, it delivers ~9.6x performance speedup vs Wasm SIMD, and ~3.1x performance speedup vs fastest Wasm (SIMD + Multithreads) for client AI use cases like Image Classification etc. Aug-03-2022
OAC012 Slide 31 Andrew Richards Nbody is a well known algorithm for simulating a fictional galaxy. From the gif there you can see how it simulate the movement of fictional stars. This is the formula that is used, this is what calculates the force each star in our fictional galaxy experiences, and that is just the sum of all the other interactions in the galaxy. It's intentionally simple, for example it doesn't use any shared memory, computation scales with O to N sqared, but it could be made a much bigger problem. In terms of rendering this uses OpenGL, which is in a separate translation unit. For this simple project we ran the original CUDA code and then the SYCL code that we migrated on the same Nvidia GPU. In this example the performance of the kernel code was quite comparable. I would emphasise that this can vary a lot depending on your own project, but this is an example of a comparison. Machine used: Lenovo ThinkBook 16p RTX3060 Laptop (AMD Ryzen 7 5800H Processors, Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060) with Ubuntu 20.04, DPC++ built from source and CUDA 16). Compiler flags used are available in the GitHub project build scripts at https://github.com/codeplaysoftware/cuda-to-sycl-nbody. Sep-22

Acceleration with High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) Demo booth #555 Andrey Ovsyannikov MPAS-A is a memory bandwidth-bound workload and HBM technology on Sapphire Rapids allows to unveil significant performance gains in comparison with other CPUs with conventional DDR memory. We run MPAS-A simulation of atmosphere dynamics at 1° and 0.5° global resolution on a dual-socket Sapphire Rapids with HBM and compare its performance with 3rd Gen Intel® Xeon® Scalable Processor (codenamed Icelake) and with Sapphire Rapids with DDR5 memory. Our results showed that Sapphire Rapids with HBM significantly outperform CPUs with DDR memory: by 3.2x and 1.9x compared to Icelake Sapphire Rapids with DDR, respectively.

Future of Intel® Developer Cloud: Storage moved onto the Intel® Infrastructure Processing Unit Demo Dave Minturn Moving Storage onto the Intel Infrastructure Processing Unit results in: "Xeon CPU cycle reduction (at least 2x)" and a "high bandwidth storage solution on IPU, up to line rate" Graphical interface showing ~90.8 Gbps bandwidth using the Intel IPU E2000 versus ~93.8 Gbps using the Intel E810 NIC for storage traffic. Also on the Graphical interface shown is a comparison of number of cores utilized in storage processing. When offloading storage onto the Intel IPU E2000 only ~2.6 cores are used and for the Xeon 4th Gen plus Intel E810 NIC ~14 cores are being used resulting in an ~11 core reduction in cores needed for storage processing. A results disclaimer slide will be included in the deck being used for the demo and available for the showcase floorWorkload: Flexible I/O (fio) benchmark on 2x hosts with 4x storage targets.

Poster "SYCL* Performs Across GPUs" Poster Thorsten Moeller SYCL is a highly performant language on Nvidia and AMD devices and performs comparably to native CUDA or HIP code for diverse workloads. Development environment and supporting components (compilers, tools, libraries) are highly efficient and competitive. Available tools simplify porting code from CUDA to SYCL. On an NVIDIA A100* system, for 10 workloads, SYCL performance is comparable to CUDA. On an AMD Instinct* MI100 system, for 9 workloads, SYCL performance is comparable to HIP.
