HPC Project introduces the 1.4 version of Par4All open parallelization platform extending its scope of processing and generating CUDA and OpenCL code.
This new version introduces enhancements for loop processing for CUDA and OpenCL kernel generations. Moreover, dependencies resulting from accesses to global variables are now more finely analyzed to assess parallelism.
Access the press release in English or French

Wild Systems will be at GTC 2012 the GPU Technology Conference from May the 14th to May the 17th in San José (California).
We will be on booth #41 to present the Wild Cruncher appliance. It allows Scilab users to automatically take full advantage of the GPU power. We will also present a beta version of sparse matrix solvers for NVIDIA GPUs as well as Par4All latest version
For more information you can consult the GTC web page
On January the 25th 2012, a Meetup of the HPC GPU supercomputing group is held in the Ecole des Mines de Paris. Par4All and HPC Project will be present with a talk by Ronan Keryell on automatic parallelization of C and Fortran for multicores and GPU.

The new version of Par4All 1.2 has been published on 07/08/2011.
Here is the changelog:
HPC Project announces its new High Performance appliance, Wild Cruncher, dedicated to numerical simulation users.
The primary goal for Wild Cruncher is to bridge the gap between prototyping and production phases for system engineering. This is made possible through code analysis and optimization technologies on which HPC Project has based its success.
For more information the press announce in English and in French
Par4All will be demonstrated on the HPC Booth at the Teratec Forum on June the 28th and 29th of June 2011. The focus will be on High Performance Computing numerical design and Simulation. It will take place at the Ecole Polytechnique in Palaiseau (Paris area). For more information see the Teratec Forum site.
On the 8th of June 2011, a conference on the theme « OPEN GPU : one year after launching the program » will be held at the Ecole Polytechnique (Palaiseau) in the Amphithéatre Becquerel.
Ronan Keryell will be presenting Par4All.

Paris March 18, 2011 – HPC Project introduces the 1.1 version of Par4All open parallelization platform with automatic code generation for the NVIDIA GPU based hybrid computing architectures. This version brings a significant performance improvement on the execution time of the generated code.
Par4All is the industrial implementation of a technology developed by the teams of CRI/Mines ParisTech and Télécom Bretagne. Its goal is to allow industrial users to meet the challenge of multi-cores architectures and other parallel processors for generic or embedded systems. From a C or FORTRAN application, Par4All automatically generates a parallel code to OpenMP or CUDA (compilable on NVIDIA GPU). The generated code is readable and completely traceable with the original code. The whole process works like a usual compilation.
The code generated with Par4All version 1.1 is significantly faster at execution time. This is due to the new static data-flow analyzer. This new analyzer allows the optimization of the communications between host and GPU as well as allocations to the GPU. Practical examples of applications are available on http://www.par4all.org/documentation/benchmarks/
HPC Project was established in December 2007. HPC Project is a pioneer in developing tools and strategies for high performance computing and code optimization. HPC Project goal is to bring the power of supercomputer on the engineer’s desk.
