  1. L16: Feedback from Design Review

  2. Administrative • Still missing some design reviews • Please email to me slides from presentation • And updates to reports • By Wednesday, Apr 15, 5PM • Final Reports on projects • Poster session April 29 with dry run next week • Also, submit written document and software by May 6? • Invite your friends! I’ll invite faculty, NVIDIA, graduate students, application owners, ..

  3. Feedback on Design Reviews Overall, a nice set of projects! • Define all terms – do not assume your audience has prior knowledge of the application, algorithms or prior approaches • Keep it very focused and streamlined on knowledge required to understand your project. • Slides (and posters) should be more visual. You can use visuals to Illustrate computation or application domain Show data structure or computation mapped to GPU • [Presentation] Eye contact! • Very few projects talked about performance. (You’re probably not ready for that yet, but should be by the final report.)

  4. A Few Words on Measurements Compare to CPU implementation Measure with and without copy cost to/from CPU Use “events” as in prior experiments Or do you want to provide alternative metric of success? [Discussion]

  5. Final Project Presentation • Dry run on April 22 • Easels, tape and poster board provided • Tape a set of Powerpoint slides to a standard 2’x3’ poster, or bring your own poster. • Final Report on Projects due May 6? • Submit code • And written document, roughly 10 pages, based on earlier submission. • In addition to original proposal, include • Project Plan and How Decomposed (from DR) • Description of CUDA implementation • Performance Measurement • Related Work (from DR)

  6. Final Remaining Lectures • Texture caches • Algorithms: e.g., Sorting • Application: Sum-products using Software Managed Cache “Efficient Computation of Sum-products on GPUs Through Software-Managed Cache,” M. Silberstein, A. Schuster, D. Geiger, A. Patney, J. Owens, ICS 2008. http://www.cs.technion.ac.il/~marks/docs/SumProductPaper.pdf
