Course Overview

This workshop teaches you the fundamental tools and techniques for running GPU-accelerated Python applications using CUDA® GPUs and the Numba compiler. You’ll work though dozens of hands-on coding exercises and, at the end of the training, implement a new workflow to accelerate a fully functional linear algebra program originally designed for CPUs, observing impressive performance gains. After the workshop ends, you’ll have additional resources to help you create new GPU-accelerated applications on your own.

Course Objectives

  • GPU-accelerate NumPy ufuncs with a few lines of code.
  • Configure code parallelization using the CUDA thread hierarchy.
  • Write custom CUDA device kernels for maximum performance and flexibility.
  • Use memory coalescing and on-device shared memory to increase CUDA kernel bandwidth.
