The benefits of thinking “whole platform” are on display with the oneAPI Rendering Toolkit. I highly recommend looking at this recipe, and others, in the Intel Advisor Cookbook. This can be very helpful in identification of potential performance changes that may need to be addressed for future GPU designs. A new capability, with this 2021.4 update, is for modeling GPU application performance when moving to support a different GPU. The team behind Intel ® A dvisor has an online cookbook filled with step-by-step recipes for using the tool for a number of important performance tuning scenerios. Learn more by visiting the VTune Profiler Cookbook where there are many great recipes for tuning including a new one using flame graphs, or consult the documentation for the flame graph feature.Īnother nice VTune Profiler addition is that the GPU Offload analysis now presents a richer set of information about execution on the GPU by including more context from the CPU including execution and data transfers. We can use flame graphs to analyze the time spent on each function and its callee functions.

We can now switch to a Flame Graph window to quickly identify the hottest code paths in an application. VTune Profiler introduces support for flame graphs as a hotspot analysis type. The tools are true to the oneAPI vision of supporting XPUs we see constantly expanding support for CPUs, GPUs, FPGAs, and more.

WINDOWS TOOLKIT 2021 UPDATE

The 2021.4 update contains some stunning graphics for both Hollywood folks (OSPRay) and performance tuning experts (Flame Graphs in Intel® VTune™ Profiler), expands implementations of standards (SYCL, OpenMP, Fortran), and performance enhancements through Python, libraries, and compilers.

Intel oneAPI tools are prebuilt and validated products to support oneAPI for Intel architectures. Of course, specifications are nothing without implementations. You are encouraged to join the conversation by reviewing the oneAPI Specification, as well as the advisory notes/slides, and post comments or questions as github issues. The Advisory Board is an invitation-only forum comprised of industry experts that help guide the oneAPI parallel programming ecosystem. The oneAPI Technical Advisory Board (TAB) meetings notes are posted on github. This community means that oneAPI is also an initiative. OneAPI is an open specification, with an active community of advisors and implementors, all committed to this open, multivendor, and multiarchitecture approach. That future has been under attack for some time now, and it is a battle for openness like none we’ve ever seen.

WINDOWS TOOLKIT 2021 SOFTWARE

OneAPI is a bold vision for CPUs and XPUs (accelerators) that aims to help ensure an open multivendor multiarchitecture future for software developers. Intel® oneAPI tools are based on decades of software products from Intel that have been widely used for building many applications in the world and built from multiple open source projects to which Intel contributes heavily. This is the fourth release of oneAPI tools, marking nearly a year of oneAPI implementations.

I am pleased to announce the latest Intel® oneAPI Toolkits update (2021.4).
