AMD Expands ROCm 6.3 with Optimized Libraries for AI and HPC Workflows

3. AMD Fortran Compiler: Bridging Legacy Code to GPU Acceleration
Enterprises running legacy Fortran based HPC applications can now unlock the power of modern GPU acceleration with AMD Instinct accelerators, thanks to the new AMD Fortran compiler introduced in ROCm 6.3.

Key Benefits:

  • Direct GPU Offloading: Leverage AMD Instinct GPUs with OpenMP offloading, accelerating key scientific applications.
  • Backward Compatibility: Build on existing Fortran code while taking advantage of AMD’s next-gen GPU capabilities.
  • Simplified Integrations: Seamlessly interface with HIP Kernels and ROCm Libraries, eliminating the need for complex code rewrites.

Enterprises in industries such as aerospace, pharmaceuticals, and weather modeling can now future proof their legacy HPC applications, realizing the power of GPU acceleration without the need for extensive code overhauls previously required. Get started with the AMD Fortran Compiler on AMD Instinct GPUs through this detailed walkthrough.
