Code Reflection in Action - Translating Java to SPIR-V

Explore the process of translating Java code to SPIR-V using the Babylon code reflection API in this 40-minute conference talk from the JVM Language Summit. Dive into how Java code is first converted to a SPIR-V code reflection dialect, then transformed into a SPIR-V binary module for GPU execution. Learn about SPIR-V, an intermediate representation specialized for parallel compute and graphics workloads, and its applications in graphics libraries like Vulcan and GPU compute frameworks such as OpenCL and oneAPI. Gain insights from Steve Dohrmann, Senior Staff Software Engineer at Intel Corporation, as he demonstrates this innovative approach to GPU programming with Java. Access additional resources including Project Babylon, SPIR Overview, Java to SPIR-V examples, and tools like the Beehive SPIR-V Toolkit and Intel's Level Zero library for further exploration of this topic.
