NVIDIA Deep Learning Institute Workshop at Texas A&M

Posted on October 18, 2018 by Jian Tao

As part of the NVIDIA Deep Learning Institute (DLI) University Ambassadorship program, HPRC and College of Engineering are offering the Fundamentals of Accelerated Computing with CUDA C/C++ workshop at no cost to Texas A&M students, staff, and researchers. This intensive hands-on workshop is complementary to the existing Introduction to CUDA short course offered by HPRC.

  • Time: Friday, November 9, 11:30AM-2:00PM
  • Location: SCC 102.B
  • Prerequisites: Experience with C or C++

The CUDA computing platform enables the acceleration of CPU-only applications to run on the world’s fastest massively parallel GPUs. Experience C/C++ application acceleration by:

  • Accelerating CPU-only applications to run their latent parallelism on GPUs
  • Utilizing essential CUDA memory management techniques to optimize accelerated applications
  • Exposing accelerated application potential for concurrency and exploiting it with CUDA streams
  • Leveraging command line and visual profiling to guide and check your work
  • Upon completion, you’ll be able to accelerate and optimize existing C/C++ CPU-only applications using the most essential CUDA tools and techniques. You’ll understand an iterative style of CUDA development that will allow you to ship accelerated applications quickly.

Tao part of team to develop latest benchmark suite

Posted on January 17, 2018 by Jian Tao

Dr. Jian Tao, a Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station (TEES) research scientist with affiliation to the Texas A&M High Performance Research Computing (HPRC) group, received a cash award and a free benchmark license for application code and datasets accepted under a benchmark search program sponsored by the Standard Performance Evaluation Corporation (SPEC). The new SPEC CPU2017 benchmark suite replaces SPEC CPU2006, launched 11 years ago.

SPEC is a nonprofit corporation formed to establish, maintain and endorse standardized benchmarks and tools to evaluate performance and energy efficiency for the newest generation of computing systems. Its membership comprises of more than 120 leading computer hardware and software vendors, educational institutions, research organizations and government agencies worldwide.
