This October I had the honor of presenting my work on using Python with GPUs at PyData NYC 2012.

There was also a panel discussion on Python+Parallel that I was a part of—great fun.

Also be sure to check out all the videos of the other great talks …

Like last year, I had the honor of being invited to present PyCUDA and PyOpenCL along with a few examples of their use to a great crowd at Nvidia‘s inaugural GPU Technology Conference 2010.

At the recent PyCon Quattro, which took place in early May in the beautiful Tuscan city of Florence, Fabrizio Milo gave a talk on PyCUDA entitled

PyCuda: Come sfruttare la potenza delle schede video nelle applicazioni python (PyCUDA: How to make use of the power of graphics cards in Python …

Quite often, I hear complaints that coding for GPUs is difficult. In response to such comments, I believe that, for correct perspective, the discussion needs to be framed somewhat differently.

First of all, squeezing the last drop of performance out of modern CPUs is hard, too. Here’s a nice …

In my opinion, GPU computing is significant because I—as a grad student—can easily afford a machine that allows me to perform a simulation like the following in 40 minutes instead of a whole workday. That’s why.

If you’re curious, this shows the density of a vortex …

Do you have a free checking account? A free credit card? Do you perhaps even get money back from your credit card company? Ever wonder who pays for all these freebies? This Frontline report (also embedded below) provides some answers and sheds light on the shady things going on in …

Nicolas Pinto, Yunsup Lee, Bryan Catanzaro, Paul Ivanov, Ahmed Fasih and I have recently submitted an article that explains how PyCUDA allows the user to do run-time code generation (“RTCG”), and how that is an enormous boon to implementation efforts of most high-performance codes. Among many other things, PyCUDA also …

This past week, I had the honor of presenting a talk on PyCUDA at Nvidia‘s inaugural GPU Technology Conference.
