Scientific and technical time. workstation, a Tesla D870 deskside professionals now have an supercomputer to add additional incredible opportunity to expand C for the GPU performance alongside a workstation, and a Tesla S870 GPU their ability to solve problems The world’s only C-language computing server for deployment previously impossible with current development environment for within an enterprise data center. computing approaches. the GPU, the NVIDIA CUDA™ software development kit includes Used in tandem with multi-core Parallel Performance a standard C compiler, hardware CPU systems, Tesla solutions provide a flexible computing Tesla computing solutions enable debugger tools, and a performance platform that runs on both users to process large datasets profiler for simplified application Microsoft® Windows® and Linux® with a massively multi-threaded development. computing architecture. By operating system environments. developing a parallel architecture Developer Community from the ground up, NVIDIA has NVIDIA is the catalyst for the designed its new Tesla computing largest GPU computing developer products to meet the requirements community. NVIDIA’s interactive, of HPC software. Exclusive on-line GPU developer community computing features provides access to forums, educational materials, and additional resources and tools. NVIDIA TESLA | PRODUCT OVER VIEW | JUNE 2007 | v01 NVIDIA Tesla | GPU Computing Solutions for HPC Features and Benefits Massively Multi-threaded Executes thousands of concurrent processing threads for high throughput parallel processing of Computing Architecture mathematically intensive problems. Management of the GPU resources and an extensive runtime library for enhanced data NVIDIA GPU Computing Drivers management and program execution. Offers a high speed data transfer path and streamlined driver for computing, independent of the graphics driver. Peak performance of over 500 gigaflops per GPU on floating point operations in data intensive Supercomputing Performance applications. Multiple Tesla GPUs can be controlled by a single CPU via the GPU computing driver, delivering Multi-GPU Computing incredible throughput on computing applications. The power of the GPU to solve large-scale problems can be multiplied by splitting the problem across multiple GPUs.
