  HPC133 Introduction to GPU Programming (Apr 2022)
  An overview of GPUs and their use in supercomputers. This workshop will explain what GPUs are, and cover the basic ideas of GPU use in scientific computing. We will introduce several GPU programming frameworks, and demonstrate how to accelerate a solution of a science problem using a GPU. Python or C++ could be used for the assignment.

  Source code File
  
  This tarball contains the source code for the vector addition examples, gravitational potential exercise, and sample code for the diffusion equation homework exercise.
  
  The src/gravity directory contains two Python programs to test and benchmark the different solutions for the gravitational potential exercise; the solution functions are in the gravity_calculators subdirectory. The Sapporo N-body library has to be downloaded, patched, and built before it can be used here; this is done automatically by the get_sapporo.sh script in the sapporo2 directory (tested on Mist; some tweaks required to get this program to work on other systems).
