However, the following alternative 'variable locations' are available:
- VarLocation::DEVICE - Variables are only allocated on the GPU, saving memory but meaning that they can't easily be copied to the host - best for internal state variables.
- VarLocation::HOST_DEVICE - Variables are allocated on both the GPU and the host - the default.
- VarLocation::ZERO_COPY - Variables are allocated as 'zero-copy' memory accessible to the host and GPU.
- VarLocation::HOST_DEVICE_ZERO_COPY - Variables are allocated as 'zero-copy' memory accessible to the host and GPU - useful on devices such as Jetson TX1 where physical memory is shared between the GPU and CPU.

\note
'Zero copy' memory is only supported on newer embedded systems such as the Jetson TX1 where there is no physical seperation between GPU and host memory and thus the same block of memory can be shared between them.
