Accelerating Computations
Research conference on graphics processing units, visual computing and beyond...
see http://cg.alexandra.dk/2011/11/24/accel ... nd-beyond/
On 15 December 2011 the Computer Graphics Lab at the Alexandra Institute in Aarhus will host a conference on the core aspects of accelerating computations. This research conference will be divided into a technical part called Technical Talks in the morning and a business-oriented part called Applications Talks in the afternoon.
The conference is free and you can participate either in the Technical Talks, the Applications Talks or both. Keynote speaker will be David McAllister from NVIDIA.
The Computer Graphics Lab at the Alexandra Institute is working on realising efficient computations on massive data sets by using modern many-core processors and massive data algorithms. Subsequently interactive information visualisation is crucial to analyse and understand massive data sets.
10:00- 10:15 Introduction
10:15 – 14:45 Technical Talks
10:15 – 11:00 How OptiX Makes the GPU Shine – a look inside NVIDIA’s Ray Tracing Engine, David McAllister, NVIDIA
11:00 – 11:45 MR reconstruction on GPU, Thomas Sangild, Computer Science, Aarhus University
11:45 – 12:30 Lunch
12:30- 13:15 Parthenon Renderer Revealed, Toshiya Hachisuka, Computer Science, Aarhus University
13:15- 13:45 Subsurface Light Propagation Volumes, Thomas Kim Kjeldsen, CG Lab, Alexandra Institute
13:45 – 14:00 Coffee break
14:00 – 14:45 Accelerating Dense Linear Algebra on the GPU, Hans Henrik Brandenborg Sørensen, DTU Informatics
14:45 – 16:30 Applications Talks
14:45 – 15:15 Massive acceleration, Jesper Mosegaard, CG Lab, Alexandra Institute
15:15-15:30 Coffee break
15:30 – 16:15 Dozens of Uses for Billions of Rays – a survey of ray tracing applications, David McAllister, NVIDIA
16:15 – 16:45 Scalable GPU computing service architecture: LEGO 3DServices, Henrik Høj Madsen, LEGO, Michael Schøler, Hinnerup.net.
16:45 – Networking and sandwiches
Hope to see you there
Regards, Jesper
