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 Workshop October 4th

The Workshop on General Purpose Processing on Graphics Processing Units will be held October 4, 2007 at Northeastern University, Boston, MA. This meeting will include a keynote talk by Prof. Wen-mei Hwu on "GP Computing: Hardware, Architecture Tools and Education". The program will include three invited talks from NVIDA ATI and IBM Research, and will include demos by GPU hardware and software vendors. The technical program will include 12 refereed papers. Registration is free, though you need to register for GPGPU at: http://censsis-db3.ece.neu.edu/RICC2007/regist.aspx Commercial companies that are interested in presenting at GPGPU, please contact the organizing committee at gpgpu@ece.neu.edu.
