GPGPU
General-Purpose Computation Using Graphics Hardware

Introduction

GPGPU 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.

GPGPU Tutorial and Sample Code

A half-day GPGPU tutorial session was given by Dominik Goeddeke and Robert Strzodka in conjunction with the ICCS 2006 conference in Reading, UK. After a comprehensive introduction to the GPU programming model with many examples, possibilities to increase performance and accuracy in GPGPU applications were presented.
