Fearless Concurrency on the GPU

Rust has made safe systems programming practical on the CPU, but writing custom GPU kernels in Rust still forces programmers outside the language's ownership guarantees. We present cuTile Rust, a tile-based system for safe, idiomatic GPU kernel authoring in Rust. cuTile Rust extends Rust's ownership discipline to tile-based GPU kernels: mutable outputs are split into disjoint pieces, kernel launches preserve the host-side ownership contract, and programmers can opt out locally when they need lower-level control.
