Title:

Making Good On The Real-Time Promise

Abstract:

In preparation for my GI poster I wanted a demo to run along side the poster. Unfortunately the demo needed to run at interactive rates. I spent the week prior to GI optimizing my code. In particular I focused on specific NVIDIA extensions to improve performance. I will be talking about my results and relevant background information.
