Textbook in PDF format

Writing high-performance Python code doesn’t have to mean switching to C++. This book shows you how to accelerate Python applications using NVIDIA’s CUDA platform and a modern ecosystem of Python tools and libraries. Aimed at researchers, engineers, and data scientists, it offers a practical yet deep understanding of GPU programming and how to fully exploit modern GPU hardware.
You’ll begin with the fundamentals of CUDA programming in Python using Numba-CUDA, learning how GPUs work and how to write, execute, and debug custom GPU kernels. Building on this foundation, the book explores memory access optimization, asynchronous execution with CUDA streams, and multi-GPU scaling using Dask-CUDA. Performance analysis and tuning are emphasized throughout, using NVIDIA Nsight profilers.
You’ll also learn to use high-level GPU libraries such as JAX, CuPy, and RAPIDS to accelerate numerical Python workflows with minimal code changes. These techniques are applied to real-world examples, including PDE solvers, image processing, physical simulations, and transformer models.
Written by experienced GPU practitioners, this hands-on guide emphasizes reproducible workflows using Python 3.10+, CUDA 12.3+, and tools like the Pixi package manager. By the end, you’ll have future-ready skills for building scalable GPU applications in Python
