Quick background- I have a subsurface fluid flow simulation tool that I wrote several years ago. From it, I started up a consultancy company, which is finally paying the bills. The algorithms lend ...

In a move that shouldn't be that surprising, NVIDIA has announced that its popular CUDA platform is being ported to x86. The obvious angle here is that this will give NVIDIA a weapon against OpenCL ...

Nvidia earlier this month unveiled CUDA Tile, a programming model designed to make it easier to write and manage programs for GPUs across large datasets, part of what the chip giant claimed was its ...

This isn’t a review, but given the popularity of my last CUDA book review, I thought I’d mention that Addison-Wesley has published a new book called CUDA by Example: An Introduction to General-Purpose ...

Graphics processing units (GPUs) were originally designed to perform the highly parallel computations required for graphics rendering. But over the last couple of years, they’ve proven to be powerful ...

SANTA CLARA, CA--(Marketwire - Oct 15, 2012) - NVIDIA today made available the NVIDIA® CUDA® 5 production release, a powerful new version of the world's most pervasive parallel computing platform and ...

Nvidia has announced a new version of its CUDA parallel computing platform and programming model, ahead of the annual International Conference for High Performance Computing, Networking, Storage, and ...

Support for unified memory across CPUs and GPUs in accelerated computing systems is the final piece of a programming puzzle that we have been assembling for about ten years now. Unified memory has a ...

Back in 2000, Ian Buck and a small computer graphics team at Stanford University were watching the steady evolution of computer graphics processors for gaming and thinking about how such devices could ...

Most notably, the chipmaker announced a compiler source code enabling software developers to add new languages and architecture support to Nvidia’s CUDA parallel programming model. The new ...
