ParallelComputing

Well, not the last word, but the last blog post I plan to do here on that topic.

Over the last 12 months, I have published 45 blog posts related to C++ AMP on the Parallel Programming in Native Code, and the rest of the team has published even more. Occasionally I'll link to some of them from my own blog here, but today I decided to stop doing that - so if you relied on my personal blog pointing you to C++ AMP content, it is time you subscribed to the msdn blog. I will continue to blog about other topics here of course, so stay tuned.

So, for the last time, I encourage you to read the latest two blog posts I published on the team blog bringing together essential reading material on C++ AMP

Learn C++ AMP - a collection of links to take you from zero to hero.
Present on C++ AMP - a walkthrough on how to give a presentation including slides.

Got questions on C++ AMP? Hit the msdn forum!

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

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

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
