Parallel Computing

Hi, I am Daniel Moth This screencast assumes knowledge of the C++ AMP API, e.g. that you totally understand the matrix multiplication implementation in C++ AMP. So if you satisfy that prerequisite, watch this screencast on what features are available in Visual Studio 2012…

Hi, I am Daniel Moth This screencast assumes knowledge of the C++ AMP API, i.e. the simple model and the tiled model, and here we look at a common algorithm (matrix multiplication) and convert it from serial on the CPU, to run on the GPU, first with the simple model and then tiled. To…

Hi, I am Daniel Moth This screencast assumes no knowledge of C++ AMP and introduces the core API from scratch. You'll see parallel_for_each, extent, index, restrict(amp), array_view, and accelerator. I will explain these concepts through a "hello world" code…

Hi, I am Daniel Moth This screencast demonstrates a C++ AMP sample app: Cartoonizer. You can find pointers to information about the sample including where to get the Visual Studio code from the corresponding blog post. To learn more please visit the C++ AMP blog,…

The Parallel Computing Concurrency Runtime team write tools for the C++ community that make it easier to write reliable, performant and scalable concurrent and parallel code. In this conversation, Mike Chu , Dana Groff, Artur Laksberg, and Vinod Koduvayoor Subramanian talk…

Hi, I am Daniel Moth This screencast demonstrates one of our C++ AMP sample apps: Morph. You can learn more about the sample and download the Visual Studio project with all the code from the corresponding blog post. To learn more please visit the C++ AMP blog, and we encourage…

Hi, I am Daniel Moth This screencast demonstrates one of our C++ AMP sample apps: NBody. You can learn more about the sample and download the Visual Studio project with all the code from the corresponding blog post. To learn more please visit the C++ AMP blog, and we encourage…

CHESS is an automated tool from Microsoft Research for finding errors in multithreaded software by systematic exploration of thread schedules. It finds errors, such as data-races, deadlocks, hangs, and data-corruption induced access violations, that are extremely hard to find with…

Concurrency is a problem that faces all developers as we move to the age of ManyCore processor architectures. Managing state is an important aspect of programming generally and for parallel programming especially. The great Brian Beckman demonstrates three ways of labeling a binary tree with…

Hi, I am Daniel Moth This screencast is a companion to my MSDN Magazine article that you can read online: Introduction to Tiling in C++ AMP. You will be introduced to the tiled_extent class, the tiled_index class, the tile_barrier class, and the tile_static storage class. To learn more…
