ParallelComputing

Previously I shared resources to get you started with DirectCompute, for taking advantage of GPGPUs in an a way that doesn't tie you to a hardware vendor (e.g. nvidia, amd).

I just stumbled upon and had to share a lecture series on channel9 on DirectCompute!

Here are direct links to the episodes that are up there now:

Having watched these I recommend them all, but if you only want to watch a few, I suggest #2, #3, #4 and #5. Also, you should download the "WMV (High)" so you can see the code clearly and be able to Ctrl+Shift+G for fast playback…

TIP: To subscribe to channel9 GPU content, use this RSS feed.

WhatGPU obviously stands for Graphics Processing Unit (the silicon powering the display you are using to read this blog post). The extra GP in front of that stands for General Purpose computing.So, altogether GPGPU refers to computing we can perform on GPU for purposes beyond just drawing on the screen… >>> More
gpgpu vs. physX for physics simulation

as seen on Game Development - Search for 'Game Development'
Hello First theoretical question. What is better (faster)? Develop your own gpgpu techniques for physics simulation (cloth, fluids, colisions...) or to use PhysX? (If i say develop i mean implement existing algorithms like navier-strokes...) I don't care about what will take more time to develop… >>> More
Financial applications on GPGPU

as seen on Stack Overflow - Search for 'Stack Overflow'
I want to know what sort of financial applications can be implemented using a GPGPU. I'm aware of Option pricing/ Stock price estimation using Monte Carlo simulation on GPGPU using CUDA. Can someone enumerate the various possibilities of utilizing GPGPU for any application in Finance domain, >>> More
Best approach for GPGPU/CUDA/OpenCL in Java?

General-purpose computing on graphics processing units (GPGPU) is a very attractive concept to harness the power of the GPU for any kind of computing. I'd love to use GPGPU for image processing, particles, and fast geometric operations. Right now, it seems the two contenders in this space are CUDA… >>> More
GPGPU programming with OpenGL ES 2.0

I am trying to do some image processing on the GPU, e.g. median, blur, brightness, etc. The general idea is to do something like this framework from GPU Gems 1. I am able to write the GLSL fragment shader for processing the pixels as I've been trying out different things in an effect designer app… >>> More

C++ AMP Video Overview

as seen on Daniel Moth - Search for 'Daniel Moth'
I hope to be recording some C++ AMP screencasts for channel9 soon (you'll find them through my regular screencasts link on the left), and in all of them I will assume you have watched this short interview overview of C++ AMP. Note: I think there were some technical problems with streaming… >>> More
Screencasts introducing C++ AMP

as seen on Daniel Moth - Search for 'Daniel Moth'
It has been almost 2.5 years since I last recorded a screencast, and I had forgotten how time consuming they are to plan/record/edit/produce/publish, but at the same time so much fun to see the end result! So below are links to 4 screencasts to teach you C++ AMP basics from scratch (even if you class… >>> More

GPU Debugging with VS 11

as seen on Daniel Moth - Search for 'Daniel Moth'
With VS 11 Developer Preview we have invested tremendously in parallel debugging for both CPU (managed and native) and GPU debugging. I'll be doing a whole bunch of blog posts on those topics, and in this post I just wanted to get people started with GPU debugging, i.e. with debugging C++ AMP code… >>> More

Internally and unofficially we refer to this as "HPC Server v3" and its Beta2 became available last week. Read the full story on this blog post from Ryan and this one from Don. There has been a lot of excitement on the web for this release with coverage from last Wednesday here, here, here… >>> More
