The Portland Group®, a wholly-owned subsidiary of STMicroelectronics, today announced the general availability of the PGI® Release 8.0 line of high-performance compilers and development tools for Linux, Mac OS X and Windows. PGI Release 8.0 includes full support for the recently announced OpenMP 3.0 multi-core parallel programming standard in Fortran and C across all supported platforms. The new release also adds support for building and debugging of OpenMPI applications on both Linux and MacOS, complementing existing MPI capabilities on Linux and Windows clusters. PGI 8.0 users can now develop and deploy multi-core and parallel applications on any of the major desktop or cluster operating systems using identical PGI compilers, the latest OpenMP features, MPI implementation of choice and bundled OpenMP/MPI-capable debugging and profiling tools. In a significant new development, PGI Release 8.0 also marks The Portland Group's entry into the field of accelerated computing with provisional support for automatic offloading of parallel computations from x64 host processors to CUDA-enabled GPUs from NVIDIA.

"PGI is joining the increasing number of software publishers offering innovative approaches to harnessing the power of NVIDIA GPUs by leveraging the CUDA development environment," said Andy Keane, general manager, Tesla computing solutions, NVIDIA. "With their 20 year history and track record of success, we expect PGI's offering will open the door for members of the HPC community to begin incrementally porting large legacy production science and engineering codes to take full advantage of NVIDIA Tesla accelerators."

The PGI 8.0 x64+GPU compilers automatically analyze whole program structure and data, split portions of the application between the x64 CPU and GPU as specified by user directives, and define and generate an optimized mapping of loops to automatically use the parallel cores, hardware threading capabilities and SIMD vector capabilities of modern GPUs. In addition to directives and pragmas that specify regions of code or functions to be accelerated, the PGI Fortran and C compilers support user directives that give the programmer fine-grained control over the mapping of loops, allocation of memory, and optimization for the GPU memory hierarchy. The PGI compilers generate unified x64+GPU object files and executables that manage all movement of data to/from the GPU device while leveraging all existing host-side utilities—linker, librarians, makefiles—and require no changes to the existing standard HPC Linux/x64 programming environment.

Other significant new features included in PGI Release 8.0 are support for OpenMP parallel and local OpenMPI parallel debugging in Mac OS X, new simplified licensing setup on Microsoft Windows, support for Microsoft HPC Server 2008 clusters and support for the latest processors from AMD and Intel.

Evaluation copies of the new PGI compilers are available from The Portland Group web site at www.pgroup.com. Registration is required.

看完全文，没看到“以及”的FireStream在哪。。。。
版主也做标题党

原来是刚达成协议，准备开发．．．．

The Portland Group®, a wholly-owned subsidiary of STMicroelectronics and leading supplier of compilers for high-performance computing (HPC), today announced it has entered into an agreement with AMD to cooperate on the development of compiler technology for AMD FireStream™ compute accelerators.

好消息
越来越多的软件支持CUDA和FireStream对于工作效率的提高是大有裨益。

CUDA无用论正在慢慢慢慢的消失......很久没见以前那一大批无用论者了...怀念.

一堆只会玩游戏的人说的话可以无视的。
因为他们不知道很多领域计算都只闲慢，不闲快的！

CUDA不代表GPGPU应用。GPGPU是有前景的，但是CUDA和FireStream未必，今后的天下是属于OpenCL和Computer shader的。

希望你说的是真的。

不管怎么说，没有人会嫌显卡功能多吧……

如果真的这样，CUDA就真的完蛋了，作用完全成为NV GPU的驱动程序一样的东西，以后应用层的编程大家都用OpenCL和Computer shader。
