Vassilios,

Incredibly exciting to to see that you are proceeding with work!!! I was just thinking you you guys today intended to reach out.

Two small request:

-We hare rewriting the ESDK from scratch and really want collaboration. I look forward to seeing what you have done wrt to efficient barriers and program load.(note, we have depracted srec load for future only elf formats). The new community effort is located here. It would be great if you one consider contributing back some of the smaller piece (like optimized barrier) once you can publish

https://github.com/parallella/pal

-We need to accelerate the innovation and discovery cycle. Once your articles are accepted, please consider pre-publishing at http://arxiv.org/. Most journals/conferences allow it...and if the journals don't allow it then quite frankly they are idiots!

Cheers,
Andreas

Andreas,

thank you for your kind words.
We are going to share all code as soon as possible. Pre-publication material will also be available, for sure.
We certainly would like to help with the general community effort and I believe we will; let's hope I get new students to join the group! 99.9% of this effort has been the work of a PhD and a Master student of mine, and they are finishing soon

Vassilios,
Have the PhD and masters students contact me if they are at all interested in working for Adapteva in Europe.

Can you try adding "-le-loader" to the LDFLAGS in the Makefile?

[kloetzl]

That helped. Thanks!

Good day everybody,

this is just to inform you that we will be releasing the source code for OMPi soon; academically, our work will be presented in detail at Europar 2015

BTW, Andreas, we had contacted you more than a month ago but received no reply. Did you get our emails?

You can expect a new post soon. Best regards,
Vassilios

Hello everyone,

Congratulation for the openmp achievement.
I read this was a C only compiler. Any plan for creating a C++ version of it?

Thanks,

Tim.
