50-lines example deployable on GPU and CPU

This concise 3-D heat diffusion solver uses ParallelStencil and a simple boolean USE_GPU defines whether it runs on GPU or CPU (the number of threads used in the latter case is defined when starting Julia, e.g. with the environment variable JULIA_NUM_THREADS):

const USE_GPU = true
using ParallelStencil
using ParallelStencil.FiniteDifferences3D
@static if USE_GPU
    @init_parallel_stencil(CUDA, Float64, 3);
else
    @init_parallel_stencil(Threads, Float64, 3);
end

@parallel function diffusion3D_step!(T2, T, Ci, lam, dt, dx, dy, dz)
    @inn(T2) = @inn(T) + dt*(lam*@inn(Ci)*(@d2_xi(T)/dx^2 + @d2_yi(T)/dy^2 + @d2_zi(T)/dz^2));
    return
end
