Nvidia launched a community Web site Wednesday for HPC (High Performance Computing) developers working with the company’s GPUs.

The CUDA Zone site is geared to developers using CUDA (Compute Unified Device Architecture). CUDA is a C language environment for CUDA-enabled GPUs. The environment has helped engineers, scientists and others find ways to process the vast amounts of data required by their work and boost speed, Nvidia said.

CUDA Zone will serve as a global meeting point for anyone wanting to know about CUDA and Nvidia’s GPUs, including Tesla as well as Quadro models, according to a company represenative. Featured will be white papers on programming techniques, customer spotlights and forums. Users also will be able to download CUDA tools and code samples.
