Využití GPU pro všeobecné výpočty

General Purpose Computing on GPU

Shaders are the most important part of graphic accelerators. In origin these programmable units were designed for computation of custom complex graphic effects. GPUs contain dozen to hundreds parallel processing units. This parallelism offer high performance in applications with relative simple operations on huge amount of data. This work describes graphic pipeline, programmable parts of GPU and programming language GLSL. It presents principles of stream processing on example of simple linear algebra operator using OpenGL API and GLSL.
