Serie wydawnicze:
Practical
Ocena:
Writing high-performance Python code doesn’t have to mean switching to C++. This book shows you how to accelerate Python applications using NVIDIA’s CUDA platform and a modern ecosystem of Python tools and libraries. Aimed at researchers, engineers, and data scientists, it offers a practical yet deep understanding of GPU programming and how to fully exploit modern GPU hardware.

You’ll begin with the fundamentals of CUDA programming in Python using Numba-CUDA, learning how GPUs work and how to write, execute, and debug custom GPU kernels. Building on this foundation, the book explores memory access optimization, asynchronous execution with CUDA streams, and multi-GPU scaling using Dask-CUDA. Performance analysis and tuning are emphasized throughout, using NVIDIA Nsight profilers.

You’ll also learn to use high-level GPU libraries such as JAX, CuPy, and RAPIDS to accelerate numerical Python workflows with minimal code changes. These techniques are applied to real-world examples, including PDE solvers, image processing, physical simulations, and transformer models.

Written by experienced GPU practitioners, this hands-on guide emphasizes reproducible workflows using Python 3.10+, CUDA 12.3+, and tools like the Pixi package manager. By the end, you’ll have future-ready skills for building scalable GPU applications in Python.

O autorach książki

Dr. Niels Cautaerts has 10 years of experience writing Python for scientific applications. Five years ago he became interested to leverage hardware acceleration in his code. Soon after, he began contributing CUDA kernels to open source projects in his field of research. He has since applied his expertise to build GPU accelerated code in various projects, including a low latency framework for object detection in continuous image streams. Niels maintains a small following on YouTube and Medium, where he shares educational content about tech. Currently Niels works as a research software developer and data scientist. He has also worked as a big-data engineer. Niels has a background in materials science and holds a Ph.D. in applied Physics.
Hossein Ghorbanfekr is a computational physicist with over a decade of expertise in scientific programming for material modeling, specializing in C/C++ and Python. During his Ph.D., he wrote various codes, utilizing parallel computing and GPU acceleration. Since 2020, he has been working as a data scientist, focusing on machine learning and high-performance computing in research projects. Hossein has contributed to the development of an object detection framework for waste stream analysis and created GEOBERTje, a domain-specific large language model in geology. His recent work includes Pantea, an open-source, GPU-accelerated machine learning framework for molecular simulations.
