Parameters:

• address – [inout] First value to be used in the atomic operation.

• val – [in] Second value to be used.

• op – [in] Operation to be used.

template<typename T>
__device__ inline void AtomicMin(T &a, T b)

Metafunction to do a atomic minimum operation that accepts floating-point types.

Template Parameters:

T – Type of the values used in the atomic operation.

Parameters:

• a – [inout] First value to be used in the atomic operation.

• b – [in] Second value to be used.

template<typename T>
__device__ inline void AtomicMax(T &a, T b)

Metafunction to do a atomic maximum operation that accepts floating-point types.

Template Parameters:

T – Type of the values used in the atomic operation.

Parameters:
