NVIDIA to Host Full-Day CUDA Tutorial at SC08

October 16th, 2008

NVIDIA will host a full-day Tutorial on “High Performance Computing with CUDA” (Module M02) at Supercomputing 2008 at the Austin Convention Center in Austin, Texas on Monday, Nov. 17, 2008 from 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. SC08 is the international conference on high performance computing, networking, storage and analysis. The tutorial is designed to give attendees a thorough introduction to the CUDA programming model. NVIDIA engineers will partner with academic and industrial researchers to present CUDA and discuss its advanced use for science and engineering applications. The morning session will introduce CUDA programming and the CUDA execution and memory models, and explore the uses of CUDA with many brief examples from diverse HPC domains. The afternoon session will cover more advanced topics and include real-world case studies from domain scientists using CUDA for computational biology, computational fluid dynamics and seismic imaging. Joining NVIDIA in this tutorial will be John Stone and Jim Phillips from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and Scott Morton from Hess Corporation, a leading global energy company, engaged in the exploration and production of crude oil and natural gas.
