+This example is executed on the JUWELS booster module. If you plan to use a different JSC system, ensure that you select a partition with GPUs.
 To demonstrate how to compile and run a program that uses GPUs, we will use one of the examples included in CUDA.
 To do this, we must additionally load the compiler `NVHPC` and the MPI version `ParaStationMPI`.  
 Additionally, we load a settings module that ensures our MPI implentation is properly set up to use CUDA.
