abstract: >-
  CUTLASS is a collection of CUDA C++ template
  abstractions for implementing high-performance
  matrix-multiplication (GEMM) and related
  computations at all levels and scales within CUDA.
  It incorporates strategies for hierarchical
  decomposition and data movement similar to those
  used to implement cuBLAS and cuDNN. CUTLASS
  decomposes these "moving parts" into reusable,
  modular software components abstracted by C++
  template classes. These thread-wide, warp-wide,
  block-wide, and device-wide primitives can be
  specialized and tuned via custom tiling sizes, data
  types, and other algorithmic policy. The resulting
  flexibility simplifies their use as building blocks
  within custom kernels and applications.
