Domain-Specific Optimization and Generation of High-Performance GPU Code for Stencil Computations.

Stencil computations arise in a number of computational domains. They exhibit significant data parallelism and are thus well suited for execution on graphical processing units (GPUs), but can be memory-bandwidth limited unless temporal locality is utilized via tiling. This paper describes how effective tiled code can be generated for GPUs from a domain-specific language (DSL) for stencils. Experim...
