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 ...

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 ...

Programmers have been interested in leveraging the highly parallel processing power of video cards to speed up applications that are not graphic in nature for a long time. Here, I explain how to do ...

NCAR was able to speed up the Weather Research & Forecasting Model by 20% by parallelizing one component of the model with NVIDIA CUDA software and a many-core GPU Computing Processor called Tesla.

The University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) has been named Nvidia's first CUDA "Center of Excellence" for adopting parallel computing strategies and applying them to research. The university ...
