NVIDIA has introduced native Python support for its CUDA platform, which allows developers to write CUDA code directly in Python without needing to rely on additional wrappers. This enhancement simplifies the process of leveraging GPU capabilities for machine learning and scientific computing, making it more accessible for Python users.

This roadmap offers an introduction to GPU architecture for those new to the technology, emphasizing the differences between GPUs and CPUs. It outlines objectives such as understanding GPU features, implications for program construction in GPGPU, and specifics about NVIDIA GPU components. Familiarity with high-performance computing concepts may be beneficial but is not required.
