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.

GPGPU gets Wired: "Supercomputing's Next Revolution" Wired magazine has published an article about GPGPU by Paul Tulloch called
"Supercomputing's Next Revolution". The article discusses recent
results from the Stanford
Folding@Home project and the
UNC Gamma Group, whose most resent
results will be presented next week at
Supercomputing 2006 in
Tampa, Florida.
