Hello CSC Members, In the first of our member talks for the term, Katie Hyatt will give a short introduction to General Purpose Graphics Processing Unit computing. This expanding field has many applications. The primary focus of this talk will be nVidia's CUDA architecture. It includes information on the programming environment, notable algorithms that GPUs are useful for, and some applications to physics. For more information, see http://csclub.uwaterloo.ca/events/MC_2054-2011-06-09-4:30_PM I look forward to seeing many of you tomorrow. Refreshments will be provided.
