Sycl Failure Taxonomy Internship

2 days ago

Edinburgh, United Kingdom Codeplay Full time

In addition to educating users about how NOT to write SYCL code, these tests can be incorporated into the test suites for the runtime, to ensure that the implementation handles the errors gracefully as far as possible. Error handling is a very important feature of software in a safety-critical context and has to be extensively tested to ensure that errors are caught and dealt with, which is why negative testing is essential to ensure the safety of this kind of software.

Also, if analysis shows that certain SYCL features are more likely than others to lead to errors, it might suggest that these should be removed from the upcoming SYCL SC specification, if possible.
- Starting salary - Competitive & Negotiable**Responsibilities**:

- You will
- Research and brain-storm the different ways a SYCL program can compile, but fail/crash/hang. Some failure modes may only present on certain devices, e.g. CPUs/GPUs/DSPs.
- Develop an organised, categorised set of SYCL tests that (may) fail, according to the specification.
- Analyse the failure modes to categorise them, writing up the taxonomy of failing tests in a document.
- Write a mínimal SYCL test for each, describing the type and reason for failure in the comments.
- Prepare a blog post and/or presentation describing the effort and its results.

**What We Offer**:

- A friendly and relaxed working environment where colleagues respect and support each other.
- Great career prospects within a growing company
- Newstart mentoring scheme
- Flexible working hours
- Frequent company social events (social nights, pot luck lunches, gaming, karting, outdoor adventures, and more) (Post-COVID)

**Required Skills**:

- Modern C++ experience

**Beneficial Skills**:
Knowledge and/or experience of any of the following would be useful for the role, but are not essential. You must be able to learn new skills, but will be given support from Codeplay's team to get you up to speed.
- Knowledge of the differences between CPUs, GPUs, DSPs, etc.
