The Wigner GPU Laboratory organized the GPU Day 2017 - The Future of Many-Core Computing in Science - for the 7th time in the Wigner Datacenter. This event is dedicated to the field of many-core computing in scientific and industrial applications.
The event was very exciting with about 100 signed participants and 26 talks. Talks covered the current status and near-future of many-core hardware and software, many-core computing in physics, astronomy, medical physics and other fields of science, including development technologies (languages, compilers, tools). We also gave the opportunities for the Wigner GPU Laboratory's fellows to present their recent progress.
This year our main organizer was the MTA Wigner RCP and the gold level sponsor was the Lombiq LTD . Lombiq will
provide the soon-to-be-available videos of the GPU Day 2017 on the web page. Many pdf slides are already available there.
