/EINPresswire.com/ -- RESTON, VA--(Marketwired - March 08, 2016) - The HSA (Heterogeneous System Architecture) Foundation announced that Foundation President Dr. John Glossner will be delivering a keynote address at the Wireless Innovation Forum Conference on Wireless Communications Technologies and Software Defined Radio (WInnComm 2016), being held March 15-17 in Reston, VA. Dr. Glossner will share important new developments that are bringing the industry closer to broad adoption of heterogeneous computing. He will also elaborate on why HSA will be at the heart of the high performance and low power chipsets that will drive the next wave of wireless innovation.

WHO:

The HSA (Heterogeneous System Architecture) Foundation, a non-profit consortium of SoC IP vendors, OEMs, academia, SoC vendors, Operating System Vendors (OSVs) and Independent Software Vendors (ISVs), whose goal is making programming for parallel computing easy and pervasive.

WHAT:

HSA Foundation keynote: "Multicore Processors for Heterogeneous Systems Era."

WHEN:

Wednesday, March 16, 8:40 AM EST

WHERE:

Sheraton Reston, Reston, VA.

WHY:

• Learn why we need to bring compute app portability to heterogeneous platforms
• Glean more about the HSA vision -- discover how devices, with the eventual adoption of heterogeneous computing, will be able to run applications at much higher performance and lower power
• How HSA adds value to the SoC and the HSA ecosystem
• How end users benefit from HSA
• What makes the HSA Intermediate Language (HSAIL) so unique
• Get the latest HSA product updates from HSA Foundation member companies

About the HSA Foundation

The HSA (Heterogeneous System Architecture) Foundation is a non-profit consortium of SoC IP vendors, OEMs, Academia, SoC vendors, OSVs and ISVs, whose goal is making programming for parallel computing easy and pervasive. HSA members are building a heterogeneous computing ecosystem, rooted in industry standards, which combines scalar processing on the CPU with parallel processing on the GPU, while enabling high bandwidth access to memory and high application performance with low power consumption. HSA defines interfaces for parallel computation using CPU, GPU and other programmable and fixed function devices, while supporting a diverse set of high-level programming languages, and creating the foundation for next-generation, general-purpose computing.
