NVIDIA has just announced that developers could now pre-order a kit of reference for its development platform Carma. The kit in question will come with a CUDA SDK and operating system Ubuntu.ARM + CUDA = Carma
Carma then regroup on a single motherboard,
processor, Tegra 3 (a quad-core ARM SoC A9) with 2 GB of dedicated memory and a Quadro 1000M (based on a GPU with 96 Stream Processors, a power calculation up to 270 GFLOPS single precision), with 2 GB of memory and interfaced with PCI-Express 4x. The card in question also has two Gigabit Ethernet interfaces, a SATA connector, three USB 2.0 ports and DisplayPort and HDMI outputs. This SDK Reference should be available – in limited quantities – in the second quarter of 2012.
Carma should especially be interesting for developers of applications for the server market for ARM / CUDA, but also to those who wish to develop applications for future ARM notebooks.
