Installation Guide for Linux, Release 12.0
NVIDIA CUDA Installation Guide for Linux
The installation instructions for the CUDA Toolkit on Linux. CUDA? is a parallel computing platform and programming model invented by NVIDIA?. It enables dramatic increases in computing performance by harnessing the power of the graphics processing unit (GPU).
CUDA was developed with several design goals in mind:
Provide a small set of extensions to standard programming languages, like C, that enable a straightforward implementation of parallel algorithms. With CUDA C/C++, programmers can focus on the task of parallelization of the algorithms rather than spending time on their implementation.
Support heterogeneous computation where applications use both the CPU and GPU. Serial portions of applications are run on the CPU, and parallel portions are offloaded to the GPU. As such, CUDA can be incrementally applied to existing applications. The CPU and GPU are treated as separate devices that have their own memory spaces. This configuration also allows simultaneous computation on the CPU and GPU without contention for memory resources.
CUDA-capable GPUs have hundreds of cores that can collectively run thousands of computing threads. These cores have shared resources including a register file and a shared memory. The on-chip shared memory allows parallel tasks running on these cores to share data without sending it over the system memory bus.
This guide will show you how to install and check the correct operation of the CUDA development tools.
