The second edition of the SYCL book has now been published and is freely available for you to download and read!
It's a must-read if you are interested in learning about #SYCL, parallel C or heterogeneous programming across CPU, GPU, FPGA and more.

Our daughter recently rang the end of treatment bell, 2 years after being diagnosed with Leukemia.
Can't thank all the nurses, doctors, consultants and other NHS staff enough.
#thankyouNHS 🌈

Last week, after 808 days of chemo for Leukaemia, our daughter Charlotte rang the end of treatment bell, cancer free.
It's been a difficult time, which we have got through with the help of some amazing charities. Here’s how they helped us personally through treatment.
