OpenACC Directives

Accelerated computing is fueling some of the most exciting scientific discoveries today. For scientists and researchers seeking faster application performance, OpenACC is a directive-based programming model designed to provide a simple yet powerful approach to accelerators without significant programming effort. With OpenACC, a single version of the source code will deliver performance portability across the platforms.

NVIDIA HPC SDK

The NVIDIA HPC SDK™ with OpenACC offers scientists and researchers a quick path to accelerated computing with less programming effort. By inserting compiler “hints” or directives into your C11, C++17 or Fortran 2003 code, with the NVIDIA OpenACC compiler you can offload and run your code on the GPU and CPU.

In addition to the NVIDIA OpenACC compilers, the HPC SDK includes GPU-enabled libraries and developer tools to help with your GPU acceleration effort.
