NVHPC (formerly PGI) compilers for C, C++, and Fortran

Homepage Version(s): 23.11

NVHPC Compilers requires an environment module

In order to use NVHPC Compilers, you must first load the appropriate environment module: 

module load nvhpc

NVHPC is a powerful toolkit for developing GPU-enabled software intended to be scalable to HPC platforms. NVHPC includes a complete CUDA SDK along with compilers for CUDA Fortran as well as the standard NVCC and NVC++ compilers for CUDA.

Note

This compiler suite used to be known as the PGI (Portland Group). PGI is now part of NVIDIA and has now evolved into the NVIDIA SDK.
