Cuda#

CUDA is a set of tools developed for programming natively on NVIDIA GPUs. You can read more about CUDA on the NVIDIA website.

Usage#

CUDA is available as a module on both ARC3 and ARC4. You can find an outline of the available versions and commands to load those modules below:

System	Version	Command
ARC4	CUDA 11.1.1	`module add cuda/11.1.1`
ARC4	CUDA 10.1.168 (default)	`module add cuda`
ARC4	CUDA 9.0.176	`module add cuda/9.0.176`
ARC4	CUDA 8.0.61	`module add cuda/8.0.61`
ARC3	CUDA 11.1.1	`module add cuda/11.1.1`
ARC3	CUDA 10.1.168 (default)	`module add cuda`
ARC3	CUDA 9.0.176	`module add cuda/9.0.176`
ARC3	CUDA 8.0.61	`module add cuda/8.0.61`
ARC3	CUDA 8.0.44	`module add cuda/8.0.44`

Training#

The Research Computing team runs the HPC5: Introduction to GPU programming with CUDA twice a year. This course introduces the fundamentals of GPU programming and how to optimise code to run on GPUs.
