Section: Contracts and Grants with Industry

NVIDIA

Since 2008, we are in contacts with NVIDIA, one of the leading companies in producing graphics processing units (GPUs). In 2008, NVIDIA gave to the team a Tesla S870 computing server (rack 1U with 4 GPUs) to test our parallel algorithms. In 2009, NVIDIA provided a Professor Partnership grant to the team.
