In-Game GPU Profiling for DirectX 12 Using SetBackgroundProcessingMode

Nvidia

One factor to consider is whether background driver optimizations were engaged and when their resulting optimized shaders were deployed. As a result, running with a Debug build of an application may result in less optimal GPU workloads, for instance. The observations are then used to compile a shader asynchronously.

Implementing USD for Game Development Pipelines: An Interview with Polyphony Digital

Nvidia

USD is an open-scene description with APIs for describing, composing, simulating, and collaborating within 3D worlds. As USD already provides the functions needed for building pipelines, such as compositions, asset resolvers, file format plug-ins, and custom schemas, we adapted it to fit our pipeline. Of course we do.
