On July 14th, SciNet held a well attended one-day workshop on GPU computing, bringing together SciNet users with interest in GPGPU (General Purpose computing on Graphics Processor Units), to exchange information and experiences. Representatives of NVidia and Software Carpentry took part as well.

Eight researchers from different departments at the University of Toronto gave short talks, followed by a presentation from Software Carpentry and a number of technical presentations from NVidia. Click on the titles to get the pdf or ppt files.
