This article will focus on how to create an unmanaged dll with CUDA code and use it in a C# program. The example will show some differences between execution times of managed, unmanaged and new .NET 4 parallel versions of for() loops used to do computations on arrays. I will show in brief how to configure CUDA environment and run example program. CUDA itself is out of scope for this article because of some great online documents, about which I have added links to. There will be a few words only regarding efficiency and execution speed of CUDA kernels and memory management. CUDA enabled hardware and .NET 4 (Visual Studio 2010 IDE or C# Express 2010) is needed to successfully run the example code.

The Model-View-ViewModel (MVVM) pattern helps you to cleanly separate the business and presentation logic of your application from its user interface (UI). Maintaining a clean separation between application logic and UI helps to address numerous development and design issues and can make your application much easier to test, maintain, and evolve. It can also greatly improve code re-use opportunities and allows developers and UI designers to more easily collaborate when developing their respective parts of the application. Below you will find some resources that complement the information about this subject on the corresponding chapters in the Prism MSDN documentation ( Implementing the MVVM Pattern and Advanced MVVM Scenarios ).January 2012 This guide provides an end-to-end walkthrough of how to create an advanced Windows Phone 7.5 app that integrates with remote Windows Azure-based services. The guide can help you understand how to implement individual features for Windows Phone 7.5 and how to use them together to build an app.
