Workshop Objective: The workshop is intended to cater the need of IISc community those who wants to port their code to GPUs. During the two day workshop,the first day program covers fundamentals and intended for beginners. The second day program has a session on in-house application code porting to GPUs. This is a great opportunity for those considering porting to or parallelization their applications on GPUs, where experienced NVIDIA experts will guide them in the process.

Tentative Schedule:

Day1:
