  • Abstract
    Recently Graphic Processing Units (GPUs) have reached very high computing and memory capabilities; at the same time the price for these devices has dropped, making them suitable for standard workstations. GPUs of the current generation are able to perform vector operations at much higher rates with respect to Central Processing Units (CPUs). The reason for this discrepancy in floating-point capability lies in the specialization of GPUs for compute-intensive highly parallel computation, exactly what graphics rendering is about.
