REAL GP-GPU PROFILING
A TIGER IN A CAGE? General Purpose computations on Graphical Processor Units (GP-GPUs)
posses an extreme computational power - at least potentially.
But often a GP-GPU-programmer will end up in an endless, unproductive optimization phase.
Now, for the first time, you will have the opportunity
to do a real profiling of GP-GPU code. Not through
special hardware registers or other non-intuitive
mechanisms. But in a novel non-intrusive way,
meaning that you do not have to pre- or
re-program you code, but merely run it through
'lab4241's GP-GPU performance analyze pipeline.
Currently 'lab4241' presents alpha-stage GP-GPU
profiling, meaning that only a limited set of the
nVidia GP-GPU software stack is available—see the
requirements section for details.
Goto the download section for download the alpha-stage software, or goto the demo for a, complete GP-GPU profiling case example.
