Meeting C++ online January - The CUDA C++ Standard Library

The first meeting in 2021!

Talk starts at 20:00 CET, give remo a try & socialize from 19:00, 19:30ish Welcome Message.

And we have the honor to listen to Bryce Adelstein Lelbach speaking about: The CUDA C++ Standard Library

Abstract: CUDA C++ is an extension of the ISO C++ language which
allows you to use familiar C++ tools to write parallel programmings
that run on GPUs. However, one essential C++ tool has been missing
from device-side CUDA C++; the C++ standard library. But not any
longer! Introduced in the CUDA 10.2 toolkit, libcu++ is an opt-in
heterogeneous CUDA C++ standard library - you can get the latest
version today on GitHub: https://github.com/NVIDIA/libcudacxx. One of
the marquee features is C++ atomics for CUDA - a more correct,
efficient, and powerful replacement for the legacy CUDA `atomic*`
functions. In this example-oriented talk we'll explain how and when to
start using libcu++ and explain how it can be used to build complex
concurrent data structures and enable new classes of applications on
modern NVIDIA GPUs. We'll also give you a sneak preview of our future
roadmap for libcu++.
