File Extension PTX

File type: Parallel Thread Execution Assembly Language File

Notes about the PTX file extension:

Errors in your registry are one of the common causes for incorrect file associations on your windows system. It is highly recommended that you check your registry for file association errors (will also check for any other registry errors).

The PTX file type is primarily associated with 'CUDA' by NVIDIA Corporation.

CUDA (originally Compute Unified Device Architecture although this is no longer used) is a parallel computing architecture developed by NVIDIA.

Basically, CUDA is the compute engine in NVIDIA graphics processing units or GPUs, that is accessible to software developers through industry standard programming languages.

Programmers use C for CUDA, compiled through a PathScale Open64 C compiler, to code algorithms for execution on the GPU. CUDA is architected to support all computational interfaces, including C and new open standards like OpenCL and DX11 Compute.

Third party wrappers are also available for Python, Fortran and Java.
