Actually, you will code the 'serial' (non-parallel) parts of your code in C or C++. They are compliers for the C-family of programming languages and CUDA is a library for them. In order to use CUDA 6.0 you need the GNU Compiler Collection (gcc) and clang on your Mac. The installation is similar, but if some of you experience trouble, I will provide help in future articles.

In the situation where you cannot install OS X 10.8 or later, don't worry: you can install older CUDA releases. If you don't, you can download Mavericks (OS X 10.9) from the App Store, which is free. If you want to install CUDA 6.0 on a Mac you need to have OS X 10.8 (Lion) or later running on your computer.

System Information - Graphics/Displays Mac OS X Requirements In this case I have two of them and, fortunately, one of them is an NVIDIA. Then look for Graphics/Displays and you will get information on your graphics card, including the name. If you don't know the card/cards available on your Mac, then just go to Application > Utilities > System Information or search for System Information with Spotlight in this way and click on the icon. Choose your operating system (in this case I presume Mac OS X) and then download the package by clicking on PKG. By clicking on this link you will open the download page. The other requirement is to have the CUDA Toolkit, which is free and provides you all you need to install and run CUDA code. The most important one is a CUDA-capable GPU, so you need a recent NVIDIA graphics card. There are some general requirements which are common regardless of the operating system you use.

In this guide, I explain how to install CUDA 6.0 (the latest release as I write) on your computer under OS X.įinder menu 'GO' General System Requirements What follows are the instructions to install the necessary software to use thousands of 'vans' to enhance the performance of your code. This is the main idea about parallel computing. GPU computing is like having hundreds and thousands of skinny guys with old vans, which can be pretty effective. Each of the men is much slower than the strong guy, but if they are able to transport your load concurrently they will have the time to complete the task, have a beer together and come back to their family before the strong guy has done half the work.

If you need the work done quickly and have to move a lot of furniture, of course you will chose the second company. What would you prefer? Of course it depends of how much stuff you have to move and how much time you have to do it. The second one instead has 5 normal men available, each of them with a van of average speed. You have two choices: the first company can provide you with the strongest man alive driving the world's fastest van. You have to move to a new town and are looking to hire a furniture mover company. To better explain the key concept behind parallel computing, let me give you a more 'realistic' example. I will cover parallel computing in detail in later articles, but if I had to outline in a few words what parallel computing is I would say that it is the partition of repetitive (and therefore often time consuming) tasks into singular tasks, each of which is performed by a single core or processing unit. GPU computing is a new branch of computer science and, more specifically, of parallel computing.

CUDA is a proprietary programming language developed by NVIDIA for GPU programming, and in the last few years it has become the standard for GPU computing.

In this guide I will explain how to install CUDA 6.0 for Mac OS X.

This is the first article in a series that I will write about on the topic of parallel programming and CUDA.
