About This Talk

Learn how to accelerate Scala code by orders of magnitude with Cyfra.

There are many libraries that give you access to low-level GPU APIs, but a high-level, functional one is a different story. That’s why we created the Cyfra GPGPU framework. Use Cyfra to write functional Scala code that compiles to SPIR-V and run it with minimal setup on our Vulkan runtime. Scientific simulations, real-time data processing, rendering, and more, all become possible within the Scala language.

In this talk, we’ll demonstrate how to build a high-performance application with Cyfra. We will dive into our model of type-safe data pipelines and memory management. To complete the picture, we will also showcase a set of real-world applications.

Protobuf Goes Scala-First

Protobuf is commonly associated with code generation. However, in large projects with tens of thousands of message definitions, this approach can lead to an overwhelming amount of generated code. In this talk, I’ll share my journey in search of a different approach to this problem.
