DescriptionThe proliferation of heterogeneous computing architectures in current and future supercomputing systems dramatically increases the complexity of software development and exacerbates the divergence of software stacks. Currently, task-based runtimes attempt to alleviate these impediments, however their effective use requires expertise and deep integration that does not facilitate reuse and portability. We propose to introduce a task-based abstraction layer that separates the definition of the algorithm from the runtime-specific implementation, while maintaining performance portability.
