Inhaltsangabe

The book will be mostly reference and part cookbook. Careful descriptions of the hardware and software abstractions, best practices, and example source code will be included. Much of the source code will come in the form of reusable GÇ£microbenchmarksGÇ¥ or GÇ£microdemosGÇ¥ designed to expose specific hardware characteristics or highlight specific use cases. Best practices will be discussed and accompanied with source code. One idea that will be emphasized is the GÇ£EERS PrincipleGÇ¥ (Empirical Evidence Reigns Supreme): determining the fastest way to perform a given operation is best done empirically.

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Nicholas Wilt has been programming professionally for more than twenty-five years in a variety of areas, including industrial machine vision, graphics, and low-level multimedia software. While at Microsoft, he served as the development lead for Direct3D 5.0 and 6.0, built the prototype for the Desktop Window Manager, and did early GPU computing work. At NVIDIA, he worked on CUDA from its inception, designing and often implementing most of CUDA’s low-level abstractions. Now at Amazon, Mr. Wilt is working on cloud computing technologies relating to GPUs.
