I'd forgotten about these things! Their roadmap does look intruiging;
I'm looking forward to seeing a 64K Epiphany chip in 2018, and playing
with it from a neural net point of view.

And so en route to 64k cores, I'd be keen to get in early and play with
16; though I suspect from the software perspective that programming an
Epiphany multi-core isn't much different from doing parallel programming
in other situations. So, yeah, I'm interested; and it's good to see
they've got an OpenCL SDK. What does the academic programme entail?


This all reminds me, tangentially, of a compiler/language project that
seems to have died out: https://code.google.com/p/anic/ -- did any of
you come across that before? The dataflow paradigm does look very neat,
but I think the guy never found the time to build a working runtime
scheduler. Were I more interested in compiler technology, I'd be pretty
keen to work on something like anic..


Ciao,

Toby
