• Program transformation for automatic offloading with OpenMP: This project aims at transforming the code of an application to support GPU offloading. We propose a compiler analysis pass which detects suitable regions of code and a transformation pass to facilitate automatic GPU offloading of those regions. We also propose to design a cost model for GPU offloading which along with the running cycles on the GPU also considers the data transfer time between the CPU and the GPU. Read more …
• OpenMP on the Emu Architecture: This work focuses on providing OpenMP on Emu’s unique architecture. To achieve this, we first aim to provide a translation of OpenMP to the Tapir IR-based parallelism construct, developed at MIT. Thereafter, we attempt to translate Tapir based IR to OpenMP runtime calls, which are to be further ported to emit the Emu ISA. Read more …

Big Data

Big Data is one of the most sought-after topics nowadays.

• CREDIT: CREDIT is an interdisciplinary program to accelerate research and education in predictive analytics for science and engineering to transform our ability to effectively address and solve many complex problems posed by big data. The goal is to aid military analysts in efficiently handling and processing large volumes of complex data from multiple sources. The program will support mission-critical applications of the US Department of Defense.

  CREDIT was established at Prairie View A&M University and is directed by Dr. Lijun Qian. It includes collaborators at Stony Brook University as well as several government research labs. It is funded by the Department of Defense. Read more …
