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 "Birds of a Feather" at SIGGRAPH 2006

  • Location: Boston Convention and Exhibition Center
  • Room: Room 108
  • Date: Thursday, August 3rd
  • Time: 11am-1:00pm
Since there is not a GPGPU course offering at SIGGRAPH this year, we have scheduled a GPGPU "Birds of a Feather" (BOF) for everyone interested in GPGPU at SIGGRAPH. The current plan is for the BOF to be an informal gathering to chat about GPGPU. Many of the academics doing research in GPGPU plan to be there, as well as industry folks, including ATI and Nvidia. Since the BOF is scheduled during lunch, it will be a "brown bag" event, so bring lunch with you. We'll keep you updated on any status changes in the forums.
