Scaling CUDA C++ Applications to Multiple Nodes (SCCAMN)

 

Course Overview

Present-day high-performance computing (HPC) and deep learning applications benefit from, and even require, cluster-scale GPU compute power. Writing CUDA applications that can correctly and efficiently utilize GPUs across a cluster requires a distinct set of skills. In this workshop, you’ll learn the tools and techniques needed to write CUDA C++ applications that can scale efficiently to clusters of NVIDIA GPUs.
