shared memory. learning the basics

Hey,

Can anyone suggest, from where I can learn about the concepts of implementing shared memory. I have gone through the programming guide but that its still very clear to me.

If someone can suggest a nice tutorial/example…would be great.

You have already started with best book but at starting you will get some problem if you have not study parallel programming but it does not matters. You study CUDA programming guide and if you got any problem then put that problem into forum some experienced persons will definitely help you. In addition to that there are some pdf on some case study that explore how to use shared memory in their context and also attend webinar tutorial whenever nvidia present it
