If you are +a member of the Working Group you can access this through your account. + + +Meeting Minutes +=============== + +Summary of Main Takeaways: + +* Agreement on RFC processes and methodologies. +* oneMKL to be renamed to oneMath, with ongoing discussions on naming implications. +* Introduction of a generic GPU backend for oneDNN with opportunities for vendor-specific optimizations. +* Repository migrations scheduled for Q4 with provisional spec published. +* Progress on CI infrastructure with new GPU resources and potential community contributions. + + +Key Discussion Points +===================== + +1. General RFC Processes Discussion + + * Rod Burns initiated the discussion on the RFC processes for projects involving major changes. + * Vadim Pirogov shared experience from the oneDNN team, highlighting a maintainer-driven approach. + * Importance of consensus and feedback from key stakeholders mentioned by Vadim and Rod. + +2. OneMKL Project Renaming + + * Romain Biessy presented a proposal to rename the oneMKL project to oneMath. + * Discussion on the impact of renaming on namespaces and headers, retaining compatibility with warnings. + * Need clarity on stakeholders involved in decision-making. + * New GitHub resources were discussed for administrative communication. + +3. oneDNN Generic GPU Backend + + * Denis Samoilov introduced a new generic GPU backend to support various hardware. + * The backend can work with different adoptions like Intel, NVIDIA, and AMD. + * Emphasis on expanding coverage and optimizing implementations using vendor performance libraries. + +4. Repository Migration Update + + * Robert Cohn reaffirmed the timeline for repository migration to Q4. + * Encouraged feedback on provisional spec published. + * Discussions on managing existing and new repositories during the migration. + +5. CI Infrastructure Update + + * Aaron Dron updated on the CI infrastructure progress with new GPU resources. + * Invited discussions on hardware contributions from members. + * Planning for private documentation and handling driver updates. + + +Action Items +============ + +* Vadim Pirogov: Explore further steps for vendor-specific optimizations. +* Romain Biessy: Send a reminder regarding the naming decision deadline. +* Robert Cohn: Provide support for oneCCL spec updates. +* Aaron Dron: Liaise with members interested in providing test hardware. +* Andrew Wafaa: Assist with coordination for ARM support via GitHub Actions. + + +Decisions/Agreements Made +========================= + +* Agreement to proceed with oneMath renaming pending further stakeholder feedback. +* Consensus on adopting a step-by-step approach for repository migration. +* Approval for developing a structured CI infrastructure, leveraging new GPU testing capabilities.
