Dear GPGPU-interested, Here follow installation instructions from Ofer. The installed software will be used on lessons 3 and 4, so you have a chance to try installing it and contact Ofer during the next meeting if you have any problem. The instructions are suitable for machines with the hardware specifications (Intel or AMD CPU, better if you have an AMD GPU). To take full advantage of other GPUs (e.g., Nvidia) you will need Nvidia's implementation, which will not be addressed in class.
