OmpSs is an OpenMP-like directive-based programming model that includes heterogeneous execution (MIC, GPU, SMP, etc.) and runtime task dependencies management. Indeed, OmpSs has largely influenced the recently appeared OpenMP 4.0 specification. Zynq All-Programmable SoC combines the features of a SMP and a FPGA and benefits DLP, ILP and TLP parallelisms in order to efficiently exploit the new technology improvements and chip resource capacities. In this paper, we focus on programmability and heterogeneous execution support, presenting a successful combination of the OmpSs programming model and the Zynq All-Programmable SoC platforms.

OmpSs is a directive-based programming model that uses OpenMP-like directives, that allow to execute the tasks annotated on both the SMPs and as FPGA kernels on modern SoC processors, like the Xilinx Zynq platform. OmpSs includes the support for accelerators (MIC, GPUs, FPGAs) and task dependencies, like OpenMP 4.0 will support. In this paper we present our approach for the support of FPGAs and the Zynq SoC, the current status of the implementation, its analysis and performance evaluation.
