Nvidia Salutes Women Who CUDA
July 25, 2014 by
This week Nvidia salutes Women who use CUDA for incredible science and engineering. They’ve compiled 30 profiles so far, and the advice they share from their experiences is quite inspiring. “It’s a good way to remind people that women write code, participate in open-source projects, and invent things,” said Lorena Barba from George Washington University. “It’s important to make the technology world more attractive to female students and show them examples of women who are innovators.”
Porting to Accelerators with Hybrid Fortran
July 25, 2014 by
Over at Typhoon Computing, Michel Müller writes programmers looking to port their code to accelerators now have a new tool called Hybrid Fortran. “This python-based preprocessor parses annotations together with your Fortran code structure, declarations, accessors and procedure calls, and then writes separate versions of your code – once for CPU with OpenMP parallelization and once for GPU with CUDA Fortran.”
New Approaches to Energy Efficient Exascale
July 25, 2014 by
“As displayed at ISC’14, DEEP combines a standard InfiniBand cluster of Intel Xeon nodes, with a new, highly scalable ‘booster’ consisting of Phi co-processors and a high-performance 3D torus network from Extoll, the German interconnect company spun out of the University of Heidelberg.”
Georg Hager Interview on the Parallel Universe Computing Challenge
July 24, 2014 by
Over at the Data Stack, Mike Bernhardt has posted an interview with Georg Hager, who lead Team Germany to victory in the Intel Parallel Universe Computing Challenge at SC13. People are interested in performance, that’s why they attend SC (mostly). But there is such little competition outside the academic peer review that an idea such as […]
