GPU COMPUTING.

Catalog description

Pre-requisites: CSCD 240 with a grade ≥C+, CSCD 300 with a grade ≥C+, Advancement Programming Exam clearance. Corequisite: CSCD 545L . Beyond its applications in Graphics, General-Purpose Graphics Processing Unit computing (GPGPU) utilizes a Graphics Processing Unit (GPU)–which typically used to perform computations exclusively for computer graphics–at present to parallelize computations traditionally performed by the CPU. GPGPU becomes more widely used in applications demanding high performance. Companion course to CSCD 545L .
