NVIDIA® CUDA™ is a general purpose scalable parallel programming model for writing highly parallel applications which allows large scale multi core systems to vastly accelerate applications such as Monte Carlo, PDE’s, and various fixed income and risk models. HP and Microsoft are working with NVIDIA to integrate CUDA technology to accelerate solutions in Finance. In this tutorial, NVIDIA will present CUDA and Tesla and discuss their use for Finance quantitative analytics. Over 30 firms now have active projects using NVIDIA’s high performance offering. In this session you will:
•Be introduced to CUDA, its C++ like environment, and GPU computing in general as an approach that has quickly gained acceptance to accelerate production Finance HPC applications.
•Get an overview of Tesla – NVIDIA’s high performance computing hardware platform hosted on HP ProLiant servers
• See a CUDA application and participate in a programming model discussion. You will not only get an overview of the metrics being observed in a production financial application (performance, energy and real estate savings) compared with current HPC server/blade farm architectures but hear a real world discussion on “what it took to get there” from peers.
•Hanweck Associates will describe their experience as a developer who has leveraged CUDA to accelerate real-world Finance production code in the computational option space.
