 CUTLASS is a collection of CUDA C++ template abstractions for implementing 
 high-performance matrix-multiplication (GEMM) at all levels and scales within CUDA.

+It incorporates strategies for hierarchical decomposition and data movement similar 
+to those used to implement cuBLAS.  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
