With heterogeneous computing, an essential element of optimized application performance is the ability to offload parts of the code from one hardware unit to another.

Like from a CPU to a GPU.

In this short video, technical consulting engineer Kevin O'Leary demonstrates how two Intel software tools—Intel® Advisor and Intel® VTune™ Profiler—identify the parts of CPU code that are best offloaded to a GPU and predict the latter's performance accelerating a workload by 4.4x.
