More on thread blocks • Thread blocks are very important because: • All threads in a block can access the same (fast) local data store: shared memory • All threads in a block can be synchronised (i.e. the thread waits until all threads in the block reach the same point)
More on thread blocks • Thread blocks are very important because: • All threads in a block can access the same (fast) local data store: shared memory • All threads in a block can be synchronised (i.e. the thread waits until all threads in the block reach the same point) • A typical strategy is, therefore: 1. Each thread loads data from global device mem. to shared mem. 2. Synchronise threads 3. Process data and write result back to global memory
