##Setup on OSC

• clone repository git clone https://github.com/akonya/CUDALC.git
• navigate into directory cd CUDALC
• load the CUDA module module load cuda
• make output folder for VTK files mkdir VTK
• make output folder for BMP files mkdir BMP

You can now run the code with the bach script...

• run using batch script qsub myscript.job

OR compile it yourself, and run in a local enviroment

• compile using nvcc -o runCUDALC main.cu
• start interactive job qsub -I -l nodes=1:ppn=1:gpus=1 -l walltime=01:00:00
• run using ./runCUDALC

##Primary file contents

• main.cu contains the high level logic for the dyanics, ie. main dyanmics loop
• main.h contains all the inlcudes for main.cu
• LcSim.h contains the construction of the LcSim class used in the main dynamics loop
• LcSimParameters.h contains simulation parameters such as timestep, pitch, size ect.
• LcSimKernels.h contains the GPU kernels which are called within the LcSim class
• optics.h contains functions to do optics calculations called within LcSim.printBmpFrame()
