This document provides information about different types of graphics processing units (GPUs). It discusses integrated graphics which use system memory, dedicated graphics which have their own video memory, and accelerated processing units (APUs) which combine the CPU and GPU onto one chip. It also describes an example of an Intel CPU paired with an AMD Vega GPU, as well as AMD's Ryzen and FX series APUs.
A video card is an expansion card which generates a feed of output images to a display device . Frequently, these are advertised as discrete or dedicated graphics cards, emphasizing the distinction between these and integrated graphics. At the core of both is the graphics processing unit (GPU), which is the main part that does the actual computations, but should not be confused with the video card as a whole, although "GPU" is often used to refer to video cards.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.
Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work.

4. USESOF GRAPHIC CARD
Animation
Gaming.
Design and drafting.
Special effect creation/ editing.
And other purpose where fast rendering
and high resolutions are needed.
5. History of graphic cards?
Graphicswereused with computer
hardwarebeforethefirst graphic card was
invented.
In 1965, IBM created thefirst graphic
display machine. TheIBM 1130 computer
wasused with theIBM 2250 display unit.
In 1981, IBM developed first graphic
cards. It had just 2,4 or 16 colors.
In 1987, first graphic card with 256 colors
wasinvented by IBM.
9. Instruction to install graphicscard
Remove your current drivers.
Open up your case.
Take out your old card.
Pop in your new one.
Lock your case back.
Boot up.
Install new drives from the graphics card
official websites (ATI/NVIDIA) .
Reboot after drivers are installed.
11. OVERVIEW
A graphics card is basically a clever piece
of hardware that is very good at doing a
certain types of mathematical operations
12. CPU vs GPU
and the need of dedicated
GPU
A CPU works linearly and has a low number
cores which can do different tasks at the
same time
A GPU works on CUDA and has a large
number of processors dedicated to a
parallel task
Thus a dedicated GPU is required as most
of graphics contain a group of similar
problems
13.
14. PCI-E is the bus that the CPU uses to
communicate with GPU
An API(application program interface)
acts as a gateway between programs and
the GPU
INTERACTION OF CPU WITH
GPU
15.
16. RENDERING IN GPU
The building block of all graphic objects is
a triangle having vertices in x,y and z co-
ordinates
Basic operations on these co-ordinates is
done through the help of matrices
17.
18. THE PROCESS
The cores inside the GPU are called the
shader cores it handles vector and pixel
shading
Both work in harmony
Once rendering is complete the
ROP(rendered outputs) tells the pixels
what color to be this process is called
rasterisation
19. CUSTOM EFFECTS
At this point some custom effects can be added
such as
ANTI-ALIASING: adds intermediate pixels so that
edges do no look jiggered
ANISOTROPIC FILTERING: tends to make the
overall game graphics look good
LIGHTING: controls the shadow quality of game

23. WHAT IS
SLI?
• SLI ALLOWS SYSTEM
TO UTILIZE THE
POWER OF TWO
IDENTICAL VIDEO
CARDS FOR A SINGLE
OUTPUT DISPLAY
24. BRIEF HISTORY
3Dfx FIRST INTRODUCED THE
CONCEPT OF SLI IN 1998
NVIDIA ACQUIRED 3Dfx
THE CONCEPT OF SLI WAS PUT ON

AGEIA TECHNOLOGIES
HYBRID SLI WAS ANNOUNCED IN FEBRUARY
MARCH OF 2008 NVIDIA RELEASED THE
GEFORCE 9800GX2 GPU
32. DUAL VS SINGLE
• PERFORMANCE GAINS OF UPTO 1.5 TO 1.9(77% TO 99%)
TIMES WITH SLI
• PERFORMANCE GAINS DEPEND ON HARDWARE COMPONENTS
USED AND THE FORCEWARE DRIVER USED
34. REVIEW AND CLOSE
SLI USES TWO OR MORE GPUs TO SHARE
THE WORKLOAD WHEN RENDERING A 3D
SCENE
SLI IS MOSTLY USED IN COMPUTER SYSTEMS
FOR GAMERS TO INCREASE PERFORMANCE
AND IMAGE QUALITY
TO ENABLE SLI YOU MUST HAVE THE
REQUIRED HARDWARE THAT HAS PASSED
NVIDIA CERTIFICATON AND THE SOFTWARE
TO COMMUNICATE WITH THAT HARDWARE
35. Integrated
graphIcs
An integrated graphics processing unit (GPU) doesn't use its own
RAM; it utilizes the system's memory instead. So, if you have a
computer with 4GB of RAM, the video card can use anywhere
between one and five percent of the available memory for graphics
processing. Of course, this percentage varies depending on the size
of task, especially if you're multitasking or playing a game.
36. dedIcated graphIcs
A dedicated, or discrete, GPU has its own
independent source of video memory, leaving
the RAM your system uses untouched. If you
have a GeForce GTX 980M video card with
4GB of video memory, for example, that
memory is completely separate from your
computer's 16GB of system memory.
Dedicated cards are perfect if you are into
serious gaming or are a professional graphic
designer.
37. InteL cpU WIth aMd Vega
graphIcs
It’s here – one of the most unlikely partnerships in the
semiconductor industry. Long-time rivals Intel and AMD,
battling out of x86 dominance for over 35 years, are now
co-conspirators. Take one part Intel’s high-performance
8th
generation processor core, one part with AMD’s
efficient Vega graphics, mix together with 4 GB of HBM
memory and sprinkle in some high-performance
interconnect.
39. acceLerated processIng UnIt
An Accelerated Processing Unit (APU) combines the CPU
and GPU onto a single chip. The APU was developed by AMD
and initially released under the name Fusion. By combining both
processors onto a single chip, the components are able to
communicate faster and give you greater processing power and
performance. APUs are generally not seen as a replacement to a
standalone graphics card. Instead, they look to replace the GPUs
embedded on the motherboard.
