Development of high level application programming interface for heterogeneous computing systems for low-fidelity aerodynamic codes

近几十年来，由于对更环保、更安全、更经济的飞机的需求，航空航天工业经历了蓬勃发展。这一进步的部分原因是在飞机开发过程中集成了计算流体动力学（CFD）模拟。它限制了昂贵的风洞测试，并证明了气动计算的可靠性，同时减少了周转时间和项目开发风险。它的成功在很大程度上源于中央处理器（cpu）速度的巨大提高。未来计算架构的计算能力的提高将塑造航空航天工业中CFD的未来。作为对CPU架构进一步发展中可能存在的限制的回应，异构计算系统是

Aerospace industry has seen a thriving evolution in the recent decades driven by the demand for delivering ever greener, safer and more economical airplanes. This progress was made possible in part by the integration of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations within the aircraft development process. It limits costly wind-tunnel tests and proves to be reliable for aerodynamic calculations, simultaneously reducing turnaround time and program development risks. Its success stems to a large extent from a tremendous increase of speed of central processing units (CPUs). It is the increase of the computational horsepower of tomorrow's computing architectures that will shape the future of CFD within the aerospace industry. As a response to possible limitations in the further development of CPU architectures, heterogeneous computing systems were
