Introduction to CUDA

Personal notes

Disclaimers

This is a pre-alpha version
I did my best to put all the possible references. I need to, however, mention that everything was taken from books and online open sources.
I am not a computer science professional. I am not even a computer science student. Thus there may be some major or minor inaccuracies.

Comments

I want to share with you my personal notes on this topic.

At the moment, there are lot's of things to be completed and added, as initially, they were written for my personal use. I then decided, that adding some images and references would be the cause to share them publicly. The LaTeX document isn't clean enough, regarding the references and paragraph intending.

The author will do its best to add new chapters and section, as well as modify the new lacking features, meantioned above. The pdf document and the source LaTeX code - cuda_recap.tex.

ToDo's

[ ] Check spelling/grammar.
[ ] Add parallel algorithm - parallel scan.
[x] Add thread filtering (__all() & __any())
[ ] Constant memory, texture memory & peer access
[ ] Cuda gdb

Structure

The document is written in LaTeX. The contents are divided into different modules, which are included into the cuda_recap.tex. For compilation, LaTeX, together with all the necessary packages must be installed. The compilation is done the usual LaTeX way, together with the flag for the minted package pdflatex --shell-escpe cuda_recap.tex.
