abstract = {Programming heterogeneous computing systems is still a daunting task that will become even more challenging with the advent of emerging computer architectures. This complexity will make it harder to democratize high-performance computing, which already today highly relies on expert programmers to write efficient parallel code. This talk discusses domain specific languages (DSLs) as a promising avenue to tame heterogeneity for non-expert programmers. The high-level semantics in DSLs improves productivity while enabling coarser-grained optimization and safer code generation. Examples are provided from the domains of big-data, physics simulations and machine learning. The talk closes with insights on how compilers can leverage the high-level semantics of DSLs to optimize for emerging memory technologies.},
