GPGPU (General-Purpose computing on Graphics Processing Units)

GPGPU stands for General-Purpose computing on Graphics Processing Units. It refers to the technique of using a graphics card, traditionally designed for rendering images and video, to perform complex calculations typically handled by the central processing unit (CPU). This approach leverages the GPU's ability to process many tasks simultaneously, making it suitable for scientific simulations, data analysis, and machine learning. By harnessing the power of GPUs, GPGPU allows for faster processing and can significantly improve performance in applications that require heavy computational work.
