Prototyping accelerated applications using Python CUDA

A lot of esoteric problems can’t be solved simply by throwing more CPUs at it. That’s where GPGPUs come into play as long as the problem can be converted into a decent parallelizable one. CUDA is used in quite a few frameworks like graphics(eg. OptiX), recommender systems(eg. Theano) and Machine Learning(eg. Tensorflow). more

Making Python Faster

Python is cool, easy, unlike the previous programming languages . Afterall its main purpose of development was to be easy to code.But at the last python is not that fast as its predecessors. So to make any user-defined python module to run faster we can take the route of implementation of C libraries as Python modules. This session is all about that importing messy,long C libraries to be used in … more
