Initial Windows CLI Program Release

This release includes two CUDA Windows executables:

• main.exe: Linear buffer version of the program
• main_circ_buff.exe: Circular buffer version of the program

You are encouraged to run both executables to compare their performance differences.

Requirements

• An NVIDIA GPU with a compute capability of 5.0 or greater.
  • To check your GPU's compute capability, visit NVIDIA's CUDA GPUs page.
• Latest NVIDIA GPU drivers installed.
• CUDA Toolkit is NOT required to run these programs.

How to Run

1. Open a PowerShell terminal.
2. Navigate to the directory where you downloaded the executables.
3. Run the desired program:
   • For the linear buffer version: .\main.exe
   • For the circular buffer version: .\main_circ_buff.exe
4. Follow the on-screen instructions once the program starts.

Note

On an RTX 3050 Laptop GPU with 4 GiB of VRAM, the maximum array size is approximately 190000000 before the input is rejected due to memory constraints.
