Enable execution of Java methods on GPU

Enabling the seamless ability for Java applications to take advantage of GPUs is the subject of project Sumatra. The goal is to use Java's Stream API in parallel and the lambda programming model. It makes great sense for us to exploit the processing power and efficiency of GPUs.

The overarching goal is to make this feature easy to use for developers. The feature will be implemented with the following characteristics:

  • Do not change the syntax of the Java parallel stream API
  • Hardware and software stacks should be automatically detected
  • Automatic detection and analysis to determine if using the GPU makes sense from a performance standard
  • Provide CPU execution when offloading processing to a GPU fails ...
