As the push towards exascale hardware has increased the diversity of system architectures, performance portability has become a critical aspect for scientific software. We describe the Kokkos Performance Portable Programming Model that allows developers to write single source applications for diverse high-performance computing architectures. Kokkos provides key abstractions for both the compute and memory hierarchy of modern hardware. We describe the novel abstractions that have been added to Kokkos version 3 such as hierarchical parallelism, containers, task graphs, and arbitrary-sized atomic operations to prepare for exascale era architectures. We demonstrate the performance of these new features with reproducible benchmarks on CPUs and GPUs.

The new challenges presented by exascale system architectures have resulted in difficulty achieving the desired scalability using traditional distributed-memory runtimes. Asynchronous many-task systems (AMT) are based on a new paradigm showing promise in addressing these challenges, providing application developers with a productive and performant approach to programming on next generation systems. HPX is a C++ Library for concurrency and parallelism that is developed by The STE||AR Group, an international group of collaborators working in the field of distributed and parallel programming (Heller, Diehl, Byerly, Biddiscombe, & Kaiser, 2017; Kaiser et al., n.d.; Tabbal, Anderson, Brodowicz, Kaiser, & Sterling, 2011). It is a runtime system written using modern C++ techniques that are linked as part of an application. HPX exposes extended services and functionalities supporting the implementation of parallel, concurrent, and distributed capabilities for applications in any domain; it has been used in scientific computing, gaming, finances, data mining, and other fields.
