CUDA Workshops:
Full Day CUDA workshop : We organized a CUDA workshop
in Oct 2009 at the State University
of New York at Buffalo. There were around 40 attendees and 20 guest accounts were created for
an entire day of hands-on with CUDA. In depth presentation about the CUDA
architecture, and coding in CUDA were given by Dr. Vipin Chaudhary and Dr. J.P.
Walters.
Half Day CUDA workshop : We organized a CUDA workshop on 4th Dec 2009 for
graduate students from various walks of science and engineering at SUNY Buffalo.
It covered the CUDA architecture, the need for General Pupose GPU, G80 memory
architecture, threading and memory coalescing. 10 guest login were created on
acl-primary.cse.buffalo.edu for approximately 15 attendees where in practical
hands-on covered an overview about steps for CUDA installation, build
configurations, writing basic codes for CUDA device memory allocation,
host-device and device-host data transfer, kernel launches, executing code on
the lab nodes and a few tricks for acheiving speedups.
