What is SPIR-V? How SYCL Expands C++ Virtual Functions

Discover SPIR-V and how it lets SYCL support heterogeneous C++ virtual functions. This post covers two notions that take SYCL in different directions.

At the 13th IWOCL International Workshop on OpenCL and SYCL, Intel's Alexey Sachiko presented several experimental ideas to expand SYCL's use and scope as a cross-architecture framework for accelerated computing from edge to cloud and AI PC to supercomputer.

Virtual functions are discussed first. SYCL aims to make C++ to multiarchitecture computing a smooth transition. Virtual functions can be redefined in derived classes to offload kernels, so expanding them is consistent.

The second concept is abstraction, although not of base class functions. Increased SPIR-V backend abstraction support will help SYCL's low-level implementation interface with the wide range of hardware architectures and custom accelerators available. The purpose is to improve SYCL LLVM-SPIR-V collaboration.

In many ways, SYCL is becoming more general. SYCL abstraction, from low-level hardware abstraction to C++ virtual function objects, will be discussed as its development continues.

SYCL Virtual Functions

Virtual functions have been used in C++ program development since its inception. Popular backend abstractions like the Kokkos C++ performance portability interface, used in high-speed scientific computing, require it.

Even though the SYCL standard allows one-definition rule (ODR) virtual inheritance, device functions cannot invoke virtual member functions, making code migration difficult.

Alexey begins his talk with a simple base class with a few virtual methods, direct classes with overrides, and offload kernels.

Easy oneAPI kernel property addition for virtual class inheritance.

The experimental indirectly callable function properties from the sycl_ext_oneapi_kernel_properties GitHub sandbox are included first. A function or offload kernel can be identified as a device function and invoked indirectly.

Why do virtual functions need this?

Program objects have virtual class overrides tables. For each virtual function call, a pointer from this table is loaded to call the relevant derived function.

In the Base function, SYCL device code limitations are violated when foo throws an exception and allocates memory.

The indirectly_callable feature makes the virtual function a device function with all its limitations, like the SYCL_EXTERNAL macro.

For the same reason, assume_indirect_calls properties_tag is needed. Kernel virtual calls without this property fail.

Alexey then discusses more advanced topics and future projects like optional kernel feature support and reqd_sub_group_size.

Considering Implementation

When designing an app with this new functionality, consider these high-level factors:

SYCL applications with virtual function support should separate each virtual function set into a device image. If you use optional kernel features, duplicate with empty functions. This provides all link stage symbols without speculative compilation.

For kernel-equipped device images, connect all images with the same virtual function sets.

When targeting SPIR-V, this happens runtime. Otherwise, it happens during build link.

See the for more on technology implementation.

Ext_intel_virtual_functions is in Intel's LLVM GitHub.

Test cases for sycl_ext_oneapi_virtual_functions extension in the same source code tree.

Improve SYCL Code using Virtual Functions

Recent versions of the Intel DPC++ Compatibility Tool 2025.1 and the Intel oneAPI DPC++/C++ Compiler include experimental and evolving virtual function functionality.

SPIR-V Backend SYCL Application

SPIR-V, a binary intermediate language for compute kernels and graphical-shader stages, was specified by the Khronos Group, which regulates SYCL. Its portable format unifies intermediate representation and programming interface for heterogeneous accelerators.

A varied language and API environment supports it

This creates a duality of intermediate abstracted hardware backend representation for C++ compilers based on LLVM and LLVM Intermediate Representation, as with all CLANG project compilers.

The SPIR-V to LLVM Translator provides bidirectional translation, however it is not updated as part of the LLVM project tree, making it prone to rare incompatibilities and disconnects.

To remedy this, Intel's compiler development team recommends SPIR-V as a normal LLVM code generation target, like other hardware target runtimes. Thus, the LLVM project includes an SPIR-V backend to ensure thorough integration testing and allow it to be used with OpenAI Triton backends, graphics-oriented programming models like Vulkan or HLSL, and heterogeneous computing with OpenCL or SYCL.

With extensive documentation, an active and growing LLVM SPIR-V working group supports and maintains the Backend:

SPIR-V Target User Guide

Clang SPIR-V Support

Intel compiler developers help resolve LLVM IR semantics and specifications to SPIR-V mapping difficulties as part of Intel's commitment to the open source community.

In his presentation, Alexey Sachkov details them and Intel's solution.

Is Spir-V?

SPIR-V, a high-level binary intermediate language, defines compute kernels and graphics shaders. It was created by Khronos Group, an OpenGL, Vulkan, and OpenCL organisation.

What that means and why it matters:

IR: GPU assembly language universal. Developers utilise GLSL or HLSL instead of writing shader code for each GPU architecture, which is complicated. Compilers create SPIR-V from this source code.

SPIR-V comes as compiled binary, not source code. This has numerous benefits:

Application startup and shader loading are faster when drivers don't parse and compile text-based shader code.

IP Protection: Shader source code is hidden, making algorithm reverse-engineering harder.

Closer Hardware: SPIR-V's lower-level representation allows more direct control and performance adjustment than high-level languages.

Standard and Portable: Before SPIR-V, each graphics API (like OpenGL or DirectX) handled shaders differently, requiring several compilers and duplication. SPIR-V is a royalty-free, open standard for graphics and computing APIs.

New, low-overhead graphics API Vulkan leverages SPIR-V shaders.

Although optional, OpenGL 4.6 and later support SPIR-V.

OpenCL: GPU/processor parallelism.

In Shader Model 7.0, Microsoft aims to replace DXIL with SPIR-V for Direct3D interoperability. Important for graphics ecosystem unity.

SYCL Code Compilation Target: SPIR-V

The SPIR-V Backend for LLVM is still being developed, however it has been a project target since January 2025. Try it and comment on the LLVM project RFC page.

Disused factory transformed into Crye Precision Headquarters in Brooklyn

American studio MN DPC aimed to not "f*ck up" an old ship-building factory in Brooklyn, New York, while converting it into the vast and mixed-use Crye Precision Headquarters.

The 10,000-square-metre facility comprises a range of offices and manufacturing workshops, consolidating all of American brand Crye Precision's departments in one place. It is located in the waterfront Brooklyn Navy Yard, where a number of historic warehouses and ship-building facilities have been adaptively reused.

MN DPC's design aimed to prioritise the preservation of the old factory's huge steel structure, which was built in 1902, and ensure that any new elements were subordinate to it.

The project has since been shortlisted for rebirth project of the year at Dezeen Awards 2020.

The entrance to Crye Precision Headquarters. Top image: the former engine-building hall

"In awe of the might and vastness of the original structure, we set out with a simple dictum in mind: don't f*ck it up," explained the studio.

"More than reverence, new architectural elements build upon the logic of the existing, echoing the materiality, detailing, rhythm and spirit of the original. Great efforts were made to blur the line between old and new."

The office and workshop spaces that flank the main hall

The headquarters were commissioned by Crye Precision to accommodate the growth of the company, which specialises in combat apparel and protection for military and medical professionals.

The old ship-building factory was chosen as the site for its generous scale, which measures 153 metres in length and reaches 26 metres in height in the former engine-building hall.

This is achieved with its large-span steel structure – the focal point throughout the building.

A guest conference room that overhangs the green space

Among the Crye Precision Headquarters' facilities are administration, conference and meeting spaces, alongside workshops for design, testing, fabrication, and manufacturing.

Their layout is configured to maximise natural light and facilitate the flow of goods, but it also responds to the practicalities of heating and cooling the vast shell of the old factory.

The largest space, the former engine building hall, could only be partially conditioned and so it has been converted into the headquarters' storage and temporary workspaces.

All of the design, production, testing, manufacturing, and offices spaces, which require efficient temperature and climate control, are housed in the smaller volumes that flank it.

Crye Precision Headquarters' concrete entrance area

"Addressing the air tempering issue head-on, the radically simple decision was made to partially condition the largest volume of space – the high bay where ships were once built – and to fully condition smaller volumes of space which flanked it," said the studio.

"The partially conditioned volume was neither warm enough in the winter, nor cool enough in the summer to be considered conventionally habitable," it explained.

"It was precisely this ambiguous climatic designation which unlocked a clear organisation of the program, and resulted in the eventual layout."

A canteen on the ground floor

This final layout required MN DPC to incorporate additional enclosed spaces within the building's shell to accommodate some of the offices.

These are "designed and detailed to recede from and highlight the original structure of the building", and crafted from matching steel and concrete.

Crye Precision Headquarters is complete with a landscape of plants and trees at the entrance, which was incorporated to visually emphasise the scale of the building.

Described by the studio as a "primordial forest", is accessible from the outside through a 10-by-10-metre bifold door and forms the heart of the headquarters – acting as the main gathering area.

It is also visible throughout the building, with prime viewpoints being from a guest conference room that overhangs it and an adjacent canteen area.

The green space described as a "primordial forest"

Elsewhere, HofmanDujardin and Schipper Bosch also recently transformed an old factory in Arnhem into office spaces by inserted a lightweight steel frame.

Other architecture projects shortlisted for rebirth project of the year in the Dezeen Awards include MAD's overhaul of a vacant courtyard house in an ancient hutong and a capsule hotel and bookstore built inside an old rammed-earth structure surrounded by mountains.

Will online privacy make a comeback in 2020?

Last year was a landmark for online privacy in many ways, with something of a consensus emerging that consumers deserve protection from the companies that sell their attention and behavior for profit.

The debate now is largely around how to regulate platforms, not whether it needs to happen.

The consensus among key legislators acknowledges that privacy is not just of benefit to individuals but can be likened to public health; a level of protection afforded to each of us helps inoculate democratic societies from manipulation by vested and vicious interests.

The fact that human rights are being systematically abused at population-scale because of the pervasive profiling of Internet users — a surveillance business that’s dominated in the West by tech giants Facebook and Google, and the adtech and data broker industry which works to feed them — was the subject of an Amnesty International report in November 2019 that urges legislators to take a human rights-based approach to setting rules for Internet companies.

“It is now evident that the era of self-regulation in the tech sector is coming to an end,” the charity predicted.

Democracy disrupted

The dystopian outgrowth of surveillance capitalism was certainly in awful evidence in 2019, with elections around the world attacked at cheap scale by malicious propaganda that relies on adtech platforms’ targeting tools to hijack and skew public debate, while the chaos agents themselves are shielded from democratic view.

Platform algorithms are also still encouraging Internet eyeballs towards polarized and extremist views by feeding a radicalized, data-driven diet that panders to prejudices in the name of maintaining engagement — despite plenty of raised voices calling out the programmed antisocial behavior. So what tweaks there have been still look like fiddling round the edges of an existential problem.

Worse still, vulnerable groups remain at the mercy of online hate speech which platforms not only can’t (or won’t) weed out, but whose algorithms often seem to deliberately choose to amplify — the technology itself being complicit in whipping up violence against minorities. It’s social division as a profit-turning service.

The outrage-loving tilt of these attention-hogging adtech giants has also continued directly influencing political campaigning in the West this year — with cynical attempts to steal votes by shamelessly platforming and amplifying misinformation.

From the Trump tweet-bomb we now see full-blown digital disops underpinning entire election campaigns, such as the UK Conservative Party’s strategy in the 2019 winter General Election, which featured doctored videos seeded to social media and keyword targeted attack ads pointing to outright online fakes in a bid to hack voters’ opinions.

Political microtargeting divides the electorate as a strategy to conquer the poll. The problem is it’s inherently anti-democratic.

No wonder, then, that repeat calls to beef up digital campaigning rules and properly protect voters’ data have so far fallen on deaf ears. The political parties all have their hands in the voter data cookie-jar. Yet it’s elected politicians whom we rely upon to update the law. This remains a grave problem for democracies going into 2020 — and a looming U.S. presidential election.

So it’s been a year when, even with rising awareness of the societal cost of letting platforms suck up everyone’s data and repurpose it to sell population-scale manipulation, not much has actually changed. Certainly not enough.

Yet looking ahead there are signs the writing is on the wall for the ‘data industrial complex’ — or at least that change is coming. Privacy can make a comeback.

Adtech under attack

Developments in late 2019 such as Twitter banning all political ads and Google shrinking how political advertisers can microtarget Internet users are notable steps — even as they don’t go far enough.

But it’s also a relatively short hop from banning microtargeting sometimes to banning profiling for ad targeting entirely.

*Very* big news last night in internet political ads. @Google’s plan to eliminate #microtargeting is a move that – if done right – could help make internet political advertising a force that informs and inspires us, rather than isolating and inflaming us.

1/9

— Ellen L Weintraub (@EllenLWeintraub) November 21, 2019

Alternative online ad models (contextual targeting) are proven and profitable — just ask search engine DuckDuckGo . While the ad industry gospel that only behavioral targeting will do now has academic critics who suggest it offer far less uplift than claimed, even as — in Europe — scores of data protection complaints underline the high individual cost of maintaining the status quo.

Startups are also innovating in the pro-privacy adtech space (see, for example, the Brave browser).

Changing the system — turning the adtech tanker — will take huge effort, but there is a growing opportunity for just such systemic change.

This year, it might be too much to hope for regulators get their act together enough to outlaw consent-less profiling of Internet users entirely. But it may be that those who have sought to proclaim ‘privacy is dead’ will find their unchecked data gathering facing death by a thousand regulatory cuts.

Or, tech giants like Facebook and Google may simple outrun the regulators by reengineering their platforms to cloak vast personal data empires with end-to-end encryption, making it harder for outsiders to regulate them, even as they retain enough of a fix on the metadata to stay in the surveillance business. Fixing that would likely require much more radical regulatory intervention.

European regulators are, whether they like it or not, in this race and under major pressure to enforce the bloc’s existing data protection framework. It seems likely to ding some current-gen digital tracking and targeting practices. And depending on how key decisions on a number of strategic GDPR complaints go, 2020 could see an unpicking — great or otherwise — of components of adtech’s dysfunctional ‘norm’.

Among the technologies under investigation in the region is real-time bidding; a system that powers a large chunk of programmatic digital advertising.

The complaint here is it breaches the bloc’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) because it’s inherently insecure to broadcast granular personal data to scores of entities involved in the bidding chain.

A recent event held by the UK’s data watchdog confirmed plenty of troubling findings. Google responded by removing some information from bid requests — though critics say it does not go far enough. Nothing short of removing personal data entirely will do in their view, which sums to ads that are contextually (not micro)targeted.

Powers that EU data protection watchdogs have at their disposal to deal with violations include not just big fines but data processing orders — which means corrective relief could be coming to take chunks out of data-dependent business models.

As noted above, the adtech industry has already been put on watch this year over current practices, even as it was given a generous half-year grace period to adapt.

In the event it seems likely that turning the ship will take longer. But the message is clear: change is coming. The UK watchdog is due to publish another report in 2020, based on its review of the sector. Expect that to further dial up the pressure on adtech.

Web browsers have also been doing their bit by baking in more tracker blocking by default. And this summer Marketing Land proclaimed the third party cookie dead — asking what’s next?

Alternatives and workarounds will and are springing up (such as stuffing more in via first party cookies). But the notion of tracking by background default is under attack if not quite yet coming unstuck.

Ireland’s DPC is also progressing on a formal investigation of Google’s online Ad Exchange. Further real-time bidding complaints have been lodged across the EU too. This is an issue that won’t be going away soon, however much the adtech industry might wish it.

Year of the GDPR banhammer?

2020 is the year that privacy advocates are really hoping that Europe will bring down the hammer of regulatory enforcement. Thousands of complaints have been filed since the GDPR came into force but precious few decisions have been handed down. Next year looks set to be decisive — even potentially make or break for the data protection regime.

Best Techniques of Damp Proofing a Building Relying On Construction

Wet proofing of both residential and also industrial frameworks, although not the most attractive aspect of a building project, is still a vital part of the construct process to solve. New build residential properties will, unless there has actually been a negligent minute by a professional or architect, will certainly have a physical isolation membrane layer around 150mm above outside ground degree (a wet evidence program or DPC). This acts to stop capillary motion of wetness increasing greater than the barrier and also efficiently damp proofs the home above this obstacle. So if the structure has no planet linking over the DPC as well as no leaking pipelines, seamless gutters or blinking, then you ought to have not a problem in regards to wet proofing. It's all relatively simple.

Physical membranes as an upright separation layer or DPC building and construction has been a requirement in all block as well as block work construction for well over half a century. Older residential or commercial properties or residential properties constructed out of stone or rubble have substantial challenges when it comes to damp proofing as well as there are constraints in regards to what can be accomplished when taking a look at insertion of a DPC.

Damp Proofing Walsall

Allows initial check out how we can damp evidence a stone or arbitrary rubble wall surface residential property. This form of building will not have a DPC so one opportunity is to have a chemical DPC put into the construct to isolate the interior home from the effects of climbing wetness. This insertion into rock or non-consistent wall surfaces is very tough to apply and even more difficult to assure that you're obtaining it right. For these sort of chemical items to be effective wet proofing, they require to create an uniform layer of cream or fluid which will certainly quit the passage of water vapour relocating into the wall above. There are business out there that will "ensure" a chemical DPC in a stone or random wall building and construction however beware! I would certainly be asking the inquiry "Just how can you check that the system set up is mosting likely to work?" It simply isn't feasible!

The principle of putting in a membrane layer is still the best way forward. The benefits of using a physical membrane layer such as the New lath 2000 type lumpy sheet item which you can mechanically repair to the wet stone and then apply a finish over like make or plaster is a fall short risk-free way of managing moisture despite where it is originating from. These sheet lumpy membranes develop an air space and also permit the wall surfaces to "dry out" over time which they will do if there is a heater in the building. Any discoloration from salts which will certainly be appearing of the structure will be separated also as well as will certainly not have the ability to affect inner finishes. There really is no contrast with these items in stone structures. The membrane layer needs no surface preparation so if the building is listed it is "reversible". Consequently you will have no problems there as well as it just takes all the guess work out of the damp proofing process.

Damp Proofing Redditch

When you're taking care of brick constructed properties a chemical DPC is more likely to operate in the method it was designed to. As you have a mortar bed in an uniform development the lotion products or fluids can develop a barrier across the mortar bed just like a physical DPC as well as stop the capillary motion of water "wicking" up the wall surfaces harmful interior coatings. This type of wet proofing still has its obstacles. As soon as you have pierced and also infused the cream a re-rendering procedure requires to occur with a salt retardant additive to stop any kind of salts coming with the render and destructive coatings. This can create problems by moving salts and impurities more than the degree of the treated wet proofing. Once more the simplicity of the mechanically repaired lumpy membrane covers all bases here. As soon as the membrane layer is mounted the specialist can even populate and swab and also skim on the top, which indicates no prolonged drying times so you can enter and embellish within a number of days. The other technique can take weeks and also weeks.

Intel oneDPL(oneAPI DPC++ Library) Offloads C++ To SYCL

Standard Parallel C++ Code Offload to SYCL Device Utilizing the Intel oneDPL (oneAPI DPC++ Library).

Enhance C++ Parallel STL methods with multi-platform parallel computing capabilities. C++ algorithms may be executed in parallel and vectorized with to the Parallel Standard Template Library, sometimes known as Parallel STL or pSTL.

Utilizing the cross-platform parallelism capabilities of SYCL and the computational power of heterogeneous architectures, you may improve application performance by offloading Parallel STL algorithms to several devices (CPUs or GPUs) that support the SYCL programming framework. Multiarchitecture, accelerated parallel programming across heterogeneous hardware is made possible by the Intel oneAPI DPC++ Library (oneDPL), which allows you to offload Parallel STL code to SYCL devices.

The code example in this article will show how to offload C++ Parallel STL code to a SYCL device using the oneDPL pSTL_offload preview function.

Parallel API

As outlined in ISO/IEC 14882:2017 (often referred to as C++17) and C++20, the Parallel API in Intel oneAPI DPC++ Library (oneDPL) implements the C++ standard algorithms with execution rules. It provides data parallel execution on accelerators supported by SYCL in the Intel oneAPI DPC++/C++ Compiler, as well as threaded and SIMD execution of these algorithms on Intel processors built on top of OpenMP and oneTBB.

The Parallel API offers comparable parallel range algorithms that follow an execution strategy, extending the capabilities of range algorithms in C++20.

Furthermore, oneDPL offers particular iterations of a few algorithms, such as:

Segmented reduction

A segmented scan

Algorithms for vectorized searches

Key-value pair sorting

Conditional transformation

Iterators and function object classes are part of the utility API. The iterators feature a counting and discard iterator, perform permutation operations on other iterators, zip, and transform. The function object classes provide identity, minimum, and maximum operations that may be supplied to reduction or transform algorithms.

An experimental implementation of asynchronous algorithms is also included in oneDPL.

Intel oneAPI DPC++ Library (oneDPL): An Overview

When used with the Intel oneAPI DPC++/C++ Compiler, oneDPL speeds up SYCL kernels for accelerated parallel programming on a variety of hardware accelerators and architectures. With the help of its Parallel API, which offers range-based algorithms, execution rules, and parallel extensions of C++ STL algorithms, C++ STL-styled programs may be efficiently executed in parallel on multi-core CPUs and offloaded to GPUs.

It supports libraries for parallel computing that developers are acquainted with, such Boost and Parallel STL. Compute. Its SYCL-specific API aids in GPU acceleration of SYCL kernels. In contrast, you may use oneDPL‘s Device Selection API to dynamically assign available computing resources to your workload in accordance with pre-established device execution rules.

For simple, automatic CUDA to SYCL code conversion for multiarchitecture programming free from vendor lock-in, the library easily interfaces with the Intel DPC++ Compatibility Tool and its open equivalent, SYCLomatic.

About the Code Sample 

With just few code modifications, the pSTL offload code example demonstrates how to offload common C++ parallel algorithms to SYCL devices (CPUs and GPUs). Using the fsycl-pstl-offload option with the Intel oneAPI DPC++/C++ Compiler, it exploits an experimental oneDPL capability.

To perform data parallel computations on heterogeneous devices, the oneDPL Parallel API offers the following execution policies:

Unseq for sequential performance

Par stands for parallel processing.

Combining the effects of par and unseq policies, par_unseq

The following three programs/sub-samples make up the code sample:

FileWordCount uses C++17 parallel techniques to count the words in a file.

WordCount determines how many words are produced using C++17 parallel methods), and

Various STL algorithms with the aforementioned execution policies (unseq, par, and par_unseq) are implemented by ParSTLTests.

The code example shows how to use the –fsycl-pstl-offload compiler option and standard header inclusion in the existing code to automatically offload STL algorithms called by the std:execution::par_unseq policy to a selected SYCL device.

You may offload your SYCL or OpenMP code to a specialized computing resource or an accelerator (such CPU, GPU, or FPGA) by using specific device selection environment variables offered by the oneAPI programming paradigm. One such environment option is ONEAPI_DEVICE_SELECTOR, which restricts the selection of devices from among all the compute resources that may be used to run the code in applications that are based on SYCL and OpenMP. Additionally, the variable enables the selection of sub-devices as separate execution devices.

The code example demonstrates how to use the ONEAPI_DEVICE SELECTOR variable to offload the code to a selected target device. OneDPL is then used to implement the offloaded code. The code is offloaded to the SYCL device by default if the pSTL offload compiler option is not used.

The example shows how to offload STL code to an Intel Xeon CPU and an Intel Data Center GPU Max. However, offloading C++ STL code to any SYCL device may be done in the same way.

What Comes Next?

To speed up SYCL kernels on the newest CPUs, GPUs, and other accelerators, get started with oneDPL and examine oneDPL code examples right now!

For accelerated, multiarchitecture, high-performance parallel computing, it also urge you to investigate other AI and HPC technologies that are based on the unified oneAPI programming paradigm.

Disused factory transformed into Crye Precision Headquarters in Brooklyn

American studio MN DPC aimed to not "f*ck up" an old ship-building factory in Brooklyn, New York, while converting it into the vast and mixed-use Crye Precision Headquarters.

The 10,000-square-metre facility comprises a range of offices and manufacturing workshops, consolidating all of American brand Crye Precision's departments in one place. It is located in the waterfront Brooklyn Navy Yard, where a number of historic warehouses and ship-building facilities have been adaptively reused.

MN DPC's design aimed to prioritise the preservation of the old factory's huge steel structure, which was built in 1902, and ensure that any new elements were subordinate to it.

The project has since been shortlisted for rebirth project of the year at Dezeen Awards 2020.

The entrance to Crye Precision Headquarters. Top image: the former engine-building hall

"In awe of the might and vastness of the original structure, we set out with a simple dictum in mind: don't f*ck it up," explained the studio.

"More than reverence, new architectural elements build upon the logic of the existing, echoing the materiality, detailing, rhythm and spirit of the original. Great efforts were made to blur the line between old and new."

The office and workshop spaces that flank the main hall

The headquarters were commissioned by Crye Precision to accommodate the growth of the company, which specialises in combat apparel and protection for military and medical professionals.

The old ship-building factory was chosen as the site for its generous scale, which measures 153 metres in length and reaches 26 metres in height in the former engine-building hall.

This is achieved with its large-span steel structure – the focal point throughout the building.

A guest conference room that overhangs the green space

Among the Crye Precision Headquarters' facilities are administration, conference and meeting spaces, alongside workshops for design, testing, fabrication, and manufacturing.

Their layout is configured to maximise natural light and facilitate the flow of goods, but it also responds to the practicalities of heating and cooling the vast shell of the old factory.

The largest space, the former engine building hall, could only be partially conditioned and so it has been converted into the headquarters' storage and temporary workspaces.

All of the design, production, testing, manufacturing, and offices spaces, which require efficient temperature and climate control, are housed in the smaller volumes that flank it.

Crye Precision Headquarters' concrete entrance area

"Addressing the air tempering issue head-on, the radically simple decision was made to partially condition the largest volume of space – the high bay where ships were once built – and to fully condition smaller volumes of space which flanked it," said the studio.

"The partially conditioned volume was neither warm enough in the winter, nor cool enough in the summer to be considered conventionally habitable," it explained.

"It was precisely this ambiguous climatic designation which unlocked a clear organisation of the program, and resulted in the eventual layout."

A canteen on the ground floor

This final layout required MN DPC to incorporate additional enclosed spaces within the building's shell to accommodate some of the offices.

These are "designed and detailed to recede from and highlight the original structure of the building", and crafted from matching steel and concrete.

Crye Precision Headquarters is complete with a landscape of plants and trees at the entrance, which was incorporated to visually emphasise the scale of the building.

Described by the studio as a "primordial forest", is accessible from the outside through a 10-by-10-metre bifold door and forms the heart of the headquarters – acting as the main gathering area.

It is also visible throughout the building, with prime viewpoints being from a guest conference room that overhangs it and an adjacent canteen area.

The green space described as a "primordial forest"

Elsewhere, HofmanDujardin and Schipper Bosch also recently transformed an old factory in Arnhem into office spaces by inserted a lightweight steel frame.

Other architecture projects shortlisted for rebirth project of the year in the Dezeen Awards include MAD's overhaul of a vacant courtyard house in an ancient hutong and a capsule hotel and bookstore built inside an old rammed-earth structure surrounded by mountains.

Intel VTune Profiler: Improve AI/ML Application Performance

Improve AI/ML Application Performance with Intel VTune Profiler.

Find out how to profile Data Parallel Python and OpenVINO workloads using the oneAPI-powered tool. The use of AI and ML is rising in healthcare and life sciences, marketing and finance, manufacturing, robotics, driverless automobiles, smart cities, and more. ML workloads in real-world fields employ deep learning frameworks like PyTorch, TensorFlow, Keras, and others.

Through the “write once, deploy anywhere” approach, other developer tools, such as the OpenVINO Toolkit, also help to expedite AI research on the newest hardware architectures in fields like computer vision and generative artificial intelligence (GenAI). The goal of the open source OpenVINO Toolkit, which was first released in 2018, has been to speed up AI inference with reduced latency and increased throughput while preserving accuracy, minimizing model footprint, and maximizing hardware utilization.

It is challenging to locate and examine performance bottlenecks in the underlying source code because to the intricate structure of deep learning models, which include numerous layers and non-linear functions. ML frameworks like PyTorch and TensorFlow provide native tools and profiling APIs for tracking and evaluating performance metrics at various phases of model construction.

These approaches, however, are only applicable to software functionality. This problem is addressed by the Intel VTune Profiler, which is driven by the oneAPI and offers comprehensive insights into hardware-level memory and compute bottlenecks. By doing this, performance problems are resolved and AI applications’ performance is optimized and scaled across hardware systems with different computational envelopes.

The scope of optimization for AI/ML workloads may be expanded by using Intel VTune Profiler to profile data in concurrent Python and OpenVINO programs, as you will discover in this article.

Use Intel VTune Profiler to Boost Python Application Performance

VTune Profiler may assist in profiling a Python program, as shown in a recently published recipe in the Intel VTune Profiler Cookbook.

The following are the recipe’s fundamental software requirements:

Data Parallel Extensions for Python

Vtune Profiler (version 2022 or later)

Intel Distribution for Python

Compiler for Intel OneAPI DPC++/C++

The NumPy implementation covered in the recipe divides the calculations into logical jobs using the Intel Instrumentation and Tracing Technology (ITT) APIs and performs distance computations using the Intel oneAPI Math Kernel Library (oneMKL) routines. You may then determine which areas of the code need attention for necessary changes to get additional performance by using the VTune Profiler tool to examine the execution time and memory consumption of each logical job.

Details on the most CPU-intensive code segments are included in the output analysis report when Hotspots analysis is performed on the NumPy implementation. Additionally, it offers recommendations for investigating the profiler tool’s other performance analysis features, such Threading analysis for enhanced parallelism and Microarchitecture Exploration analysis for effective use of the underlying hardware.

Use the Data Parallel Extension for NumPy and Numba to Address Performance Bottlenecks

According to the Hotspots analysis report, NumPy operations and underlying oneMKL functions account for a significant amount of the execution time in the simple NumPy implementation of the pairwise distance computation example. By making little code modifications, NumPy may be swapped out for the Data Parallel Extension for NumPy, which will eliminate these bottlenecks. To evaluate the speed gains over the simple NumPy code and find any areas that might need further optimization, run the Hotspots analysis once again.

Additionally, the VTune Profiler makes recommendations such as using the Data Parallel Extension for Numba with your platform’s GPU to bring offload accelerator parallelism to the application. The Numba JIT compiler for NumPy operations has an open-source extension called Numba. It offers Python kernel programming APIs that resemble SYCL. The GPU Compute/Media Hotspots analysis preview function of VTune Profiler may then be used to examine the Numba implementation’s execution on a GPU.

Use Intel VTune Profiler to Examine OpenVINO Applications’ Performance

Using the VTune Profiler to profile OpenVINO-based AI applications is covered in another new recipe in the VTune Profiler cookbook. It discusses how to use the profiler tool to analyze performance bottlenecks in the CPU, GPU, and Neural Processing Unit (NPU).

If your OpenVINO application makes use of the Intel oneAPI Data Analytics Library (oneDAL) and/or the Intel oneAPI Deep Neural Network (oneDNN) Intel Distribution for Python Intel VTune Profiler (v2024.1 or later), you can access the Benchmark Tool application as part of the OpenVINO Toolkit Intel oneAPI Base Toolkit.

The recipe offers detailed steps for configuring OpenVINO with the ITT APIs for performance analysis, building the OpenVINO source, and setting it up. It profiles the AI application and analyzes performance and latency using a reference benchmark application.

Depending on the computational architecture, you may use the VTune Profiler‘s numerous performance analysis features to find hotspots and look at how much hardware is being utilized by specific code sections.

For example,

To examine CPU bottlenecks that is, the sections of code that take up the most CPU execution time use the Hotspots Analysis tool.

Use the GPU Compute/Media Hotspots Analysis preview function to profile GPU hotspots. Examine inefficient kernel methods, examine the frequency of GPU instructions for various kinds of instructions, and more to get an understanding of GPU use.

The AI PCs’ Neural Processing Units (NPUs) are made especially to boost AI/ML applications’ performance. With the Intel Distribution of OpenVINO Toolkit, you may transfer compute-intensive AI/ML tasks to Intel NPUs. You may examine the NPU performance using a number of hardware measures, including workload size, execution time, sampling interval, and more, with the use of the VTune Profiler‘s NPU Exploration Analysis preview function.

SynxFlow Project: A Smooth Migration From CUDA To SYCL

The SynxFlow Project

SynxFlow, an open-source GPU-based hydrodynamic flood modeling software, in CUDA, C++, and Python Data pre-processing and visualization are done in Python while simulations are executed on CUDA. SynxFlow can simulate floods quicker than real-time with hundreds of millions of computational cells and metre-level precision on many GPUs. An open-source software with a simple Python interface, it may be linked into data science workflows for disaster risk assessments. The model has been widely utilized in research and industry, such as to assist flood early warning systems and generate flood maps for (re)insurance firms.

SynxFlow can simulate flooding, landslide runout, and debris flow. Simulations are crucial to emergency service planning and management. A comprehensive prediction of natural disasters can reduce their social and economic costs. In addition to risk assessment and disaster preparedness, SynxFlow flood simulation can help with urban planning, environmental protection, climate change adaptation, insurance and financial planning, infrastructure design and engineering, public awareness, and education.

Issue Statement

Several variables make probabilistic flood forecasting computationally difficult:

Large dataset storage, retrieval, and management

Complex real-time data processing requires high-performance computation.

Model calibration and validation needed as real-world conditions change.

Effective integration and data transfer between hydrological, hydraulic, and meteorological models, and more.

For speedier results, a flood forecasting system must process data in parallel and offload compute-intensive operations to hardware accelerators. Thus, the SynxFlow team must use larger supercomputers to increase flood simulation scale and cut simulation time. DAWN, the UK’s newest supercomputer, employs Intel GPUs, which SynxFlow didn’t support.

These issues offered researchers a new goal to make the SynxFlow model performance-portable and scalable on supercomputers with multi-vendor GPUs. They must transition SynxFlow code from CUDA to a cross-vendor programming language in weeks, not years.

Solution Powered by oneAPI

After considering several possibilities, the SynxFlow project team chose the Intel oneAPI Base Toolkit implementation of the Unified Acceleration Foundation-backed oneAPI protocol. All are built on multiarchitecture, multi-vendor SYCL framework. It supports Intel, NVIDIA, and AMD GPUs and includes the Intel DPC++ Compatibility Tool for automated CUDA-to-SYCL code translation.

- Advertisement -

SynxFlow code migration went smoothly. This produced code that automatically translated most CUDA kernels and API calls into SYCL. After auto-translation, some mistakes were found during compilation, but the migration tool’s error-diagnostic indications and warnings made them easy to rectify. It took longer to switch from NVIDIA Collective Communications Library (NCCL)-based inter-GPU communication to GPU-direct enabled Intel MPI library calls because this could not be automated.

To summarize, there has been a promising attempt to transfer a complicated flood simulation code that was built on CUDA to SYCL, achieving both scalability and performance-portability. The conversion has been easy to handle and seamless thanks to the Intel oneAPI Base Toolkit.
