Video

(You'll need an up-to-date version of Google Chrome to play the videos. You'll also need decent internet bandwidth to do streaming (2 MBit/s should be sufficient). If your internet accesss is too slow, you can always right click and download the video.

As far as the videos are concerned, Internet Explorer and Safari are not supported, because they do not understand the video format we're using.

And Chrome behaves much better than Firefox with the new lecture video player, to the point of Firefox not even starting up properly. We're currently investigating. In the meantime, please use Chrome.

Updates

Dec 13, 2012

I've posted the /ProjectPresentationsSchedule, now in its final form. See you next week!

Sep 9, 2012
We're moving to a bigger room! We'll be meeting in room 101 of Warren Weaver Hall from September 12 onward.
Aug 21, 2012
If you're from outside of Courant, you may encounter some difficulty registering for the class. We're fighting with the NYU administration to make this better. In the meantime, please get in touch with us. This class is most definitely open to students from other departments, NYU Albert apparently just hasn't gotten the memo.
Aug 9, 2012
Less than a month to go! Class starts on September 5, 2012, from 5-7pm. We've also been assigned a room. We will be meeting in Warren Weaver Hall, room 512 (but check back here just in case there are changes in the meantime). See you then!

Grading/Evaluation

If you will be taking the class for credit, there will be

  • Weekly homework (60% of your grade)

  • A more ambitious final project, which may be inspired by your own research needs (40% of your grade) (also see /ProjectSubmissionGuidelines)

If you're planning on auditing or just sitting in, you are more than welcome.

Homework

  • Homework 1 due September 12

  • Homework 2 due September 19 September 23

  • Homework 3 due October 3 (updated 9/30 for sign bug in formula)

  • Homework 4 due October 10

  • Homework 5 due October 17

  • Homework 6 due November 1 November 4 because of the storm November 7 because of protracted power outage

  • Final project presentations in class around Dec 17--19

Material

Books

For OpenCL and GPU programming, we will also be referring to the following sources:

OpenCL in Action: How to Accelerate Graphics and Computation

from NYU net

ezproxy

via publisher

OpenCL Programming Guide

from NYU net

ezproxy

via publisher

Heterogeneous Computing with OpenCL

from NYU net

ezproxy

via publisher

Update 9/12: Fixed ezproxy links.

Primary source material

These are the technical standards on which this class will be based. While sometimes a bit technical, these documents define whether the programs you write are correct (or not) or, perhaps result in undefined behavior:

Collected Wisdom

Virtual Machine Images

Installing MPE into the virtual machine

MPE and Jumpshot for visualization of MPI execution were demonstrated during lecture 7. If you'd like to have those in your own virtual machine, download the following script:

install-mpe.sh

Change into the directory where the script resides and start the installation: 

sudo bash install-mpe.sh

If the script says 

*** SUCCESSFULLY INSTALLED MPE

then you should be able to use mpecc and jumpshot from now on. Note that jumpshot seems to have a habit of creating its main window title bar underneath the top panel, so that you can't move it. A solution is to right-click the task bar entry for Jumpshot, and click "Move".

Notes:

  • You need to be online for the entire run time of the script.
  • Depending on your machine and internet connection, the script may take around half an hour to finish. (10 minutes just now on my laptop, but that's a fairly fast machine on a fast connection)
  • It is best to leave the computer alone while it is processing the script.

  • This script is only intended for the class virtual machine, and even then you are using it at your own risk. I highly recommend that you use Virtualbox to create a system restore point before you attempt the installation, in case something goes awry. Do not attempt to use this on a Mac or another Linux machine.
