We all know that GPU's are essential to modern computing and in the production of visual effects. But what holds the future of computer graphics? NVIDIA (which graphic processors are used for some time now in Macs) wants to answer this questions with its GPU Technology Conferences held in the U.S. This conference (this year it will be the third) is one of the world's fastest-growing events focused on computational science and visualization.
GTC 2012 will be held in San Jose, California, from May 14-17 and it will focus on how the GPU is transforming science. It is expected to draw the greatest minds in the scientific, engineering, research and developer communities from more than 40 countries.
"In just a few short years, GTC has become the single most important event for scientists and researchers who use GPUs to advance their work," said Steve Scott, CTO for Tesla at NVIDIA. GTC 2012 will include keynotes, presentations, research posters, tutorials, and hundreds of instructional sessions from top experts. It will again feature the Emerging Companies Summit, where some of the world's most innovative startups showcase new technologies. It will also include networking events throughout the week, enabling experts to share information.
In addition, NVIDIA and Los Alamos National Laboratory, a leading U.S. national security research institution, will co-host at GTC 2012 the Accelerated High Performance Computing Symposium, bringing together leaders in supercomputing to share knowledge to help solve the most crucial supercomputing technology challenges.
What's also quite interesting is that co-located at GTC 2012 will be the new InPar 2012 academic conference, which provides a first-tier venue for peer-reviewed publications in the field of innovative parallel computing.
