Abstract

General Purpose GPU programming has the potential to increase the speed with which many computations can be done. We show a number of examples of such improvements, investigate how one can benchmark different implementations of GPGPU programming paradigms and how one can measure the productivity of programmers. Finally we implement and describe a sim- ple toolkit to enable ordinary program- mers to benefit from the use of a GPU.
