This course will aid in students in learning in concepts that scale the use of GPUs and the CPUs that manage their use beyond the most common consumer-grade GPU installations. They will learn how to manage asynchronous workflows, sending and receiving events to encapsulate data transfers and control signals. Also, students will walk through application of GPUs to sorting of data and processing images, implementing their own software using these techniques and libraries.

There are 5 modules in this course
The purpose of this module is for students to understand how the course will be run, topics, how they will be assessed, and expectations.
What's included
3 videos1 reading1 programming assignment2 discussion prompts1 ungraded lab
In professional settings, use of one CPU managing one GPU, is not a viable configuration to solve complex challenges. Students will apply CUDA capabilities for allowing multiple CPUs to communicate and manage software kernels on multiple GPUs. This will allow for scaling the size of input data and computational complexity. Students will learn the advantages and limitations of this form of synchronous processing.
What's included
7 videos2 programming assignments1 peer review1 discussion prompt2 ungraded labs
Students will learn to utilize CUDA events and streams in their programs, to allow for asynchronous data and control flows. This will allow more interactive and long-lasting software, including analytic user interfaces, near live-streaming video or financial feeds, and dynamic business processing systems.
