matrixMulDrv - Matrix Multiplication (CUDA Driver API Version)

Description

This sample implements matrix multiplication and uses the new CUDA 4.0 kernel launch Driver API. It has been written for clarity of exposition to illustrate various CUDA programming principles, not with the goal of providing the most performant generic kernel for matrix multiplication. CUBLAS provides high-performance matrix multiplication.
