Writing high-performance code often comes at a cost of reduced portability and simplicity —Halide fixed that and we use it often at Google. — Introduction Halide is an open-source programming language designed to make it easier to write and maintain high-performance image processing or array processing code on modern machines. Halide currently targets Different CPUs Different Operating Systems Diff compute APIs like CUDA, OpenCL, OpenGL, etc.

The modern compilers are pretty smart. But at times, it’s hard for them to figure out the best optimization. Good for us that we can guide them further on this — Modern compilers don’t just compile our code, as is from a certain high-level language to assembly language (or machine-readable instructions). They spend a great deal of time and effort optimizing our code to achieve the best performance.

I have written about how Halide allows us to write both fast and maintainable code. This one will show its power with Android applications. — Halide is an open-source domain specific language designed to make it easier to write and maintain high-performance image processing or array processing code on modern machines. I have been writing a series on Halide and this article is 3rd one in the series. In the last two articles, I talked…

Writing documentation is an important part of coding. Here are some practices we “do not” follow at Google while writing code comments. — I didn’t come up with this topic by myself. I have always believed this to be a fairly subjective topic. It still is — but, a few days back I came across the following article: Comments: How Google Developers write their comments The more I write the code, the more I feel it. “It is better to be simple than complicated.” It is more advantageous to…paigeshin1991.medium.com

Write fast and maintainable code — Last time I presented how it’s possible to achieve high performance with simple and maintainable code with Halide. This time, I’ll share about the general concepts in Halide. Introduction Halide is an open-source programming language designed to make it easier to write high-performance image processing or array processing code on modern…

I have been writing on Medium passively for a long time and boom suddenly one of the article went “sort of viral” — now I feel like an imposter! Backstory I have been blogging passively on Medium and my personal blog for a long time. I work full time at Google…
