Anaconda Accelerate
===================
High Performance Computing
--------------------------

`Accelerate` provides access to numerical libraries optimized for performance on
Intel CPUs and NVidia GPUs.


Features
--------

* Bindings to CUDA libraries: cuBLAS, cuFFT, cuSPARSE, cuRAND, and sorting
  algorithms from the CUB and Modern GPU libraries
* Speed-boosted linear algebra operations in NumPy, SciPy, scikit-learn and
  NumExpr libraries using Intel's Math Kernel Library (MKL).
* Accelerated variants of Numpy's built-in UFuncs.
* Increased-speed Fast Fourier Transformations (FFT) in NumPy.


Requirements
------------

* 64-bit operating system: Linux, OS X or Windows
* Supported Python and Numpy combinations:
   * Python 2.7 with Numpy 1.9, 1.10 or 1.11
   * Python 3.4 with Numpy 1.9, 1.10 or 1.11
   * Python 3.5 with Numpy 1.9, 1.10 or 1.11
* Numba 0.26

For the CUDA features:

* NVidia driver version 349.00 or later
* CUDA toolkit 7.0
* At least one CUDA GPU with compute capability 2.0 or above


Installation
------------

Accelerate is included with `Anaconda Workgroup and Anaconda Enterprise
subscriptions <https://www.continuum.io/content/anaconda-subscriptions>`_.

To start a 30-day free trial just download and install the Anaconda Accelerate
package.

If you already have `Anaconda <http://continuum.io/downloads.html>`_ (free
Python distribution) installed::

    conda update conda
    conda install accelerate

If you do not have Anaconda installed, you can download it `here
<http://continuum.io/downloads.html>`_.

Accelerate licenses can be installed, viewed and removed with the 
graphical Anaconda Navigator license manager or manually with your 
operating system. For more information please see the 
:doc:`License installation </anaconda/license-installation>` page.

Anaconda Accelerate can also be installed into your own (non-Anaconda) Python
environment. For more information about Accelerate please contact
`sales@continuum.io <mailto:sales@continuum.io>`_.


Update Instructions
-------------------

If you have Anaconda (free Python distribution) installed::

    conda update conda
    conda update accelerate

If you already have NumbaPro installed, you must manually upgrade NumbaPro to
install the NumbaPro compatibility layer::

    conda update conda
    conda update numbapro
