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.

Eric Haines has released the latest issue of his long-running
"Ray Tracing News". It's chock full of news and interesting discussion about
ray tracing implementation and optimization, kd-trees, and more. It also
includes links to various ray-tracing work being done on GPUs.
