+# Overview
+
+This project aims to implement Sumcheck protocol on GPU via CUDA, following the algorithm described from [here](https://github.com/ingonyama-zk/super-sumcheck). This project aims to minimize C++ code and provide easy to use Rust API for launching kernel by leveraging [bindgen](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-bindgen) and [cudarc](https://github.com/coreylowman/cudarc).
+
+## Architecture
+
+![cuda-sumcheck-architecture](https://github.com/pseXperiments/cuda-sumcheck/assets/59155248/d288b9d3-4fbd-4789-ba4b-de684efc3f4f)
+
+- `bindgen`: generates Rust struct defined inside CUDA kernels written in C++
+- `cudarc`: safe abstraction for interop with GPU driver

+
+- `build.rs` contains the build script for building the whole project
+
+- `src/cuda/includes/barretenberg/` contains barretenberg lib (https://github.com/AztecProtocol/barretenberg/tree/master) for field implementation in C++
+
+- `src/cuda/includes/prime_field.h` declares `FieldBinding` struct in C representing barretenberg `field` struct. This wrapping is due to the lack of support for C++ language of `bindgen` crate
+
+- `src/cuda/includes/wrapper.h` is interface file for `bindgen` to generate Rust struct from C struct
+
+- In `src/cuda/includes/kernel/`, multiple kernel functions are defined
+
+- In `field.rs`, conversion between `FieldBinding` struct and `halo2curves`' field struct is implemented
+
+- In `lib.rs`, expose APIs to test CUDA kernels via `GPUApiWrapper` struct
