Graphics processors NVIDIA - they are the future

At the GPU Technology Conference, which is held annually and NVIDIA held these days in San Jose (California), CEO, Jen-Hsun Huang, introduced the audience to the key directions for the development of new graphics processing firm.

Huang, speaking of prospects, students returned to the past, assessing the scale of development and its trends. Appearance of the first graphics processor with technology CUDA, ie processor Tesla, recorded was 5 years ago. In a few years, the company introduced a chip architecture Fermi, where creators improved support FP64. Last year was marked by the release of processors based on the architecture of Kepler, which is based on a technology gipereffektivnyh generation supercomputers, including the steepest in the world of Titan.

And next year, the company wants to create another processor with support for Maxwell unified virtual memory and CPU providing fast access to memory, etc. Then developers want to create a chip Volta. Memory modules to be located on top of its core GPU, that is, through the use of radical ideas, the processor having caught up to one TB capacity data exchange with memory. In the end, it will be possible in just 0.02 seconds to move data equivalent volume 1st Blu-Ray drive.

It was said about the mobile solutions corporation that are gaining momentum, regardless of the development of such a promising market segments around the world.

So, next year, will replace four new Tegra mobile processor Logan. He will appreciate the connection in a mobile ARM-architecture with graphics core Kepler, in mobile devices supporting technology PhysX, CUDA 5 and Open GL 4.3. And it is - is not all! The company wants to make and after Logan mobile processor Parker.
