Screencasts introducing C++ AMP

Thu, April 12, 2012, 07:07 PM under GPGPU | ParallelComputing

It has been almost 2.5 years since I last recorded a screencast, and I had forgotten how time consuming they are to plan/record/edit/produce/publish, but at the same time so much fun to see the end result!

So below are links to 4 screencasts to teach you C++ AMP basics from scratch (even if you class yourself as a .NET developer you'll be able to follow).

  1. Setup code - part 1
  2. array_view, extent, index - part 2
  3. parallel_for_each - part 3
  4. accelerator - part 4

If you have comments/questions about what is shown in each video, please leave them at each video recoding. If you have generic questions about C++ AMP, please ask in the C++ AMP MSDN forum.

My MSDN magazine articles are live

Mon, April 2, 2012, 07:01 AM under GPGPU | ParallelComputing

Five years ago I wrote my first MSDN magazine article, and 21 months later I wrote my second MSDN Magazine article (during the VS 2010 Beta). By my calculation, that makes it two and a half years without having written anything for my favorite developer magazine!

So, I came back with a vengeance, and in this month's April issue of the MSDN magazine you can find two articles from yours truly - enjoy:

  1. A Code-Based Introduction to C++ AMP
  2. Introduction to Tiling in C++ AMP

For more on C++ AMP, please remember that I blog about it on our team blog, and we take questions in our MSDN forum.
