At our first Meetup Dr Cyril Zeller will be here to talk about the new CUDA 4.0. He will be available to answer your questions after the presentation.

CUDA 4.0 (http://developer.nvidia.com/object/cuda_4_0_RC_downloads.html) is being released this Friday 3/4 to registered CUDA developers. It includes new features such as Unified Virtual Addressing and GPUDirect v2.0 support for Peer-to-Peer Communication, which allows better collaboration between multiple GPUs in a system that can enable more new application usage scenarios.

Come to get a sneak preview with an expert and evaluate how the cutting-edge capabilities may be relevant to your cutting-edge applications!

The agenda for the evening (6:30-8:30pm) is as follows:

1. Welcome to our group (Dr Chong)
2. Overview of HPC & GPU Supercomputing Resources (Dr Chong)
- Request for your input on upcoming topics
3. CUDA 4.0 + Q&A (Dr Zeller)

Dr Chong is the organizer of the HPC & GPU Supercomputing Group of Silicon Valley. He consults in the parallel computing space with Parasians, Parallel Computing Artisans. He is also an Adjunct Professor at Carnegie Mellon Silicon Valley, where he is establishing a research and teaching center for parallel computing. He received a PhD in Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences from University of California, Berkeley.

Dr Zeller manages the Developer Technology group at NVIDIA that works with HPC developers on porting their applications to the GPU and achieving best possible performance on current and next-generation architectures. He received a PhD in Computer Science from the Ecole Polytechnique, France.

--- As of 2/28/11 ---

Join us to discuss how this group can help you in your HPC & GPU Supercomputing endeavors!

We will provide an overview of the available resources in the GPU supercomputing development ecosystem for a practitioner, and present a range of topics that may be of interest to our members for future meetings.

This will be an exciting opportunity to discuss and refine how this group can help fill in some void in the GPU development ecosystem.
