31 vendors and research organizations now
collaborating on developing standard parallel programming model
Austin, Texas — September 12, 2017 – The
OpenMP ARB, a group of leading hardware and software vendors and research
organizations that create the OpenMP standard parallel programming
specification, today announced that Cavium, Inc., a leading provider of
semiconductor products that enable intelligent processing for enterprise, data
center, cloud, service provider wired and wireless networking has joined as a
new member.
“Cavium’s membership in the OpenMP ARB further highlights our strong belief in industry’s demand for parallel computing and the significance of the ARM Architecture,” said Avinash Sodani, Distinguished Engineer at Cavium. “Cavium’s strong product portfolio includes ThunderX2, a compelling server-class, multi-core ARMv8 CPU suited for the most demanding compute workloads. We look forward to working with other OpenMP members in furthering OpenMP standards to meet the challenges of the Exascale era.”
“We are pleased that Cavium, Inc. has joined the OpenMP ARB and will help strengthen OpenMP support in the ARM software ecosystem,” says Michael Klemm, CEO of the OpenMP ARB.
About OpenMP
The OpenMP ARB has a mission to standardize directive-based multi-language high-level parallelism that is performant, productive and portable. Jointly defined by a group of major computer hardware and software vendors, the OpenMP API is a portable, scalable model that gives parallel programmers a simple and flexible interface for developing parallel applications for platforms ranging from embedded systems and accelerator devices to multicore systems and shared-memory systems. The OpenMP ARB owns the OpenMP brand, oversees the OpenMP specification and produces and approves new versions of the specification. Further information can be found at http://www.openmp.org/.
