What Kernel Launcher can do for you

logo

Kernel Launcher is a C++ library that makes it easy to dynamically compile CUDA kernels at run time (using NVRTC) and call them in an easy type-safe way using C++ magic. Additionally, Kernel Launcher supports exporting kernel specifications from your application, to enable tuning by Kernel Tuner, and importing the tuning results, known as wisdom files, back into your application. The result: blazing fast GPU code that is maintainable and performance portable, all with minimal effort.
