General-Purpose Computation Using Graphics Hardware
|
IntroductionGPGPU stands for General-Purpose computation on GPUs. With the increasing programmability of commodity graphics processing units (GPUs), these chips are capable of performing more than the specific graphics computations for which they were designed. They are now capable coprocessors, and their high speed makes them useful for a variety of applications. The goal of this page is to catalog the current and historical use of GPUs for general-purpose computation.

Improved CSG Rendering using Overlap Graph Subtraction Sequences Abstract: The Sequenced Convex Subtraction (SCS) algorithm for Constructive Solid Geometry (CSG) sequentially subtracts convex volumes from the z-buffer. This paper presents an improvement to subtraction sequence generation which uses object space overlap information to give O(n) length sequences in the best case and (unchanged) O(n2) sequences in the worst case.
