  2. CUDA - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CUDA

    In computing, CUDA is a proprietary [1] parallel computing platform and application programming interface (API) that allows software to use certain types of graphics processing units (GPUs) for accelerated general-purpose processing, an approach called general-purpose computing on GPUs.

  3. Thread block (CUDA programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thread_block_(CUDA...

    CUDA is a parallel computing platform and programming model that higher level languages can use to exploit parallelism. In CUDA, the kernel is executed with the aid of threads. The thread is an abstract entity that represents the execution of the kernel. A kernel is a function that compiles to run on a special device. Multi threaded ...

  4. Single instruction, multiple threads - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_instruction...

    The simplest way to understand SIMT is to imagine a multi-core system, where each core has its own register file, its own ALUs (both SIMD and Scalar) and its own data cache, but that unlike a standard multi-core system which has multiple independent instruction caches and decoders, as well as multiple independent Program Counter registers, the ...

  5. List of Nvidia graphics processing units - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Nvidia_graphics...

    Core config – The layout of the graphics pipeline, in terms of functional units. Over time the number, type, and variety of functional units in the GPU core has changed significantly; before each section in the list there is an explanation as to what functional units are present in each generation of processors.

  6. General-purpose computing on graphics processing units

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General-purpose_computing...

    The dominant proprietary framework is Nvidia CUDA. [13] Nvidia launched CUDA in 2006, a software development kit (SDK) and application programming interface (API) that allows using the programming language C to code algorithms for execution on GeForce 8 series and later GPUs. ROCm, launched in 2016, is AMD's open-source response to CUDA. It is ...

  7. Graphics processing unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphics_processing_unit

    Components of a GPU. A graphics processing unit (GPU) is a specialized electronic circuit initially designed for digital image processing and to accelerate computer graphics, being present either as a discrete video card or embedded on motherboards, mobile phones, personal computers, workstations, and game consoles.

  8. Volta (microarchitecture) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volta_(microarchitecture)

    It was Nvidia's first chip to feature Tensor Cores, specially designed cores that have superior deep learning performance over regular CUDA cores. [4] The architecture is produced with TSMC's 12 nm FinFET process. The Ampere microarchitecture is the successor to Volta.

  9. Pascal (microarchitecture) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pascal_(microarchitecture)

    Painting of Blaise Pascal, eponym of architecture. Pascal is the codename for a GPU microarchitecture developed by Nvidia, as the successor to the Maxwell architecture. The architecture was first introduced in April 2016 with the release of the Tesla P100 (GP100) on April 5, 2016, and is primarily used in the GeForce 10 series, starting with the GeForce GTX 1080 and GTX 1070 (both using the ...
