| - | Although originally designed to handle computation for computer graphics, | + | |
| - | fully programmable Graphical Processing Units (GPUs) now offer a powerful | + | |
| - | alternative to general purpose computational applications traditionally handled | + | |
| - | by Central Processing Units (CPUs). As GPUs have overtaken CPUs in sheer | + | |
| - | processing power, GPU solutions have become particularly attractive for | + | |
| - | computationally intensive problems, such as data processing and physical | + | |
| - | simulations. | + | |
| - | + | ||
| - | This course covers the practical development of algorithms and associated | + | |
| - | coding in NVIDIA’s CUDA programming environment for effective general | + | |
| - | purpose computing with GPUs. | + | |
| - | + | ||
| - | The course is aimed at UCT Computer Science Honours (4th year) students. | + | |
| - | However, we have space for an additional 20 delegates. Application for | + | |
| - | attendance should comprise a motivation letter and a CV/resume and be | + | |
| - | emailed to Christopher Laidler ('' | + | |
