- This is potentially the very first performance portability paper in contemporary supercomputing, now a very important topic. It used a language called OpenCL to show, for the first time, that an application could be optimised to run well across a diverse set of computer architectures, including both CPUs and GPUs. This was the first time anyone had achieved this level of performance portability. Several major research grants followed as a result of this work (ASiMoV EP/S005072/1, and Isambard 1 & 2 EP/P020224/1, EP/T022078/1), as well as important new research collaborations with Intel, Arm, AWE, UKAEA, LLNL and Sandia.
