• Numba Compiler

Numba is a Python compiler designed for accelerating numerical and array operations, enabling users to enhance their application's performance by writing high-performance functions in Python itself. It utilizes LLVM to transform pure Python code into optimized machine code, achieving speeds comparable to languages like C, C++, and Fortran. Noteworthy features include dynamic code generation during import or runtime, support for both CPU and GPU hardware, and seamless integration with the Python scientific software ecosystem, particularly Numpy.

• GPU Acceleration in Python

This tutorial explains how to use Python for GPU acceleration with libraries like CuPy, PyOpenCL, and PyCUDA. It shows how these libraries can speed up tasks like array operations and matrix multiplication by using the GPU. Examples include replacing NumPy with CuPy for large datasets and using PyOpenCL or PyCUDA for more control with custom GPU kernels. It focuses on practical steps to integrate GPU acceleration into Python programs.

• Cornell's Advanced Compilers

This is a self guided online course on compilers. The topics covered throughout the course include universal compilers topics like intermediate representations, data flow, and “classic” optimizations as well as more research focusedtopics such as parallelization, just-in-time compilation, and garbage collection.
