The OpenMP 4.0 standard introduced support for accelerator and GPU programming and there are many introductory tutorials available.
In this webinar, we will present OpenMP's support for asynchronous kernel offloading and explain how to use it. In addition, we will show how OpenMP supports the combination with GPU-native programming models.
