  Compilation using additive annotations to achieve high-performance on GPUs
  ==========================================================================

I will present an approach to compilation based on additive annotations, where
programs represent sets of possible implementations, and which allows the
compiler to have a better understanding of the performance landscape of the
generated code compared to approaches based on program transformation.  The
approach lends itself well to hybrid optimization strategies using performance
models and auto-tuning.  I will show the efficiency of the approach for the
implementation of high-performance numerical kernels on GPUs from a high-level
language, as well as ongoing formalization efforts.

This is joint work with Ulysse Beaugnon, Albert Cohen, Andi Drebes and
Nicolas Tollenaere.
