| |
| − | Cuda memory comes in different:
| |
| − | *'''Host Memory''': Non-Paged Memory on the host side for fast interaction with the CUDA devices. see ''vtkCudaHostMemory.h''
| |
| − | *'''Linear Memory''': Linerely arranged memory on the CUDA device. see ''vtkCudaMemory.h''
| |
| − | *'''Pitch Memory''': 2D memory arrays that are aligned in the correct fashion for a fast interaction on the cuda devices. (Arranged over the memory banks for quick access). see ''vtkCudaMemoryPitch.h''
| |
| − | *'''Array Memory''': Arrays allocated over the CUDA API. see ''vtkCudaMemoryArray.h''
| |
| − | *'''Texture Memory''': Not discussed here. see [[VTK Cuda Wrapper Classes]]
