Second meeting

I presented a presentation containing introduction and motivation of GPU computing and a simple CUDA  code walk-though. The presentation file is available here. We planned the weekend project for this coming weekend: a multi touch interface for our sand box. Please stay tuned!

A Short Tutorial of Using Multi Core CPU in Matlab and C

For grads like me, who are running simulations everyday,  one CPU is far from enough. How can we make the best of  multiple cores in our machine? For those who are more familiar with Matlab, parallel computing toolbox provides an extremely simple solution. Here is a simple way to use multiple cores in Matlab: matlabpool(4) % […]

The party is ON

We launched the VGC club today @ ECE departmental Christmas Party. Professors and students showed up and played with our interactive demos. We had a great fun. A good start of VGC!

Interactive fluid dynamics demo

In preparation for the launch of the Video Geeks Club, I prepared a demo to demonstrate the power and flexibility of GPU programming using CUDA. I hacked a fluid simulation demo in CUDA SDK. It solves PDEs that model fluid dynamics in real time on a GPU (image on right). Then, I computed sparse optical […]
