Introduction to GPU programming using Julia

David will introduce the JuliaGPU (https://github.com/JuliaGPU) projects, with particular focus on the OpenCL (https://github.com/JuliaGPU/OpenCL.jl) interface. David has a background in large scale simulations using GPU hardware.

Simon will talk about GPUArrays (https://github.com/JuliaGPU/GPUArrays.jl) interface, and the CLArrays (https://github.com/JuliaGPU/CLArrays.jl) implementation, as a fast way of doing computations on your GPU. Simon is a core Julia developer and has contributed to these packages.
