Title: When and how to use GPUs
Description:This tutorial will cover the basics of GPUs: architecture (what is it and what is it good for?), coding/compiling (how do I use one?) and tooling (how can I make this easy?)
Requirements: Access to Numerix0 and a laptop connected to the MPIfR network.
Notes:
- This tutorial will be mostly hands on (mostly following an existing tutorial found here), so please bring your laptops.
- Please check that you have access to Numerix0 before the tutorial.
- Material for the tutorial (including Dockerfile and Singularity image) can be found at
numerix0:/media/scratch/gpu-tutorial. - It is recommended to add the CUDA directory to your PATH (e.g.
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/cuda/bin/)
