GPU Computing Gems
Emerald Edition
Morgan Kaufmann’s Applications of GPU Computing Series
Computing is quickly becoming the third pillar of scientific research, due in large part to the perfor-
mance gains achieved through graphics processing units (GPUs), which have become ubiquitous in
handhelds, laptops, desktops, and supercomputer clusters. Morgan Kaufmann’s Applications of GPU
Computing series offers training, examples, and inspiration for researchers, engineers, students, and
supercomputing professionals who want to leverage the power of GPUs incorporated into their simu-
lations or experiments. Each high-quality, peer-reviewed book is written by leading experts uniquely
qualified to provide parallel computing insights and guidance.
Each GPU Computing Gems volume offers a snapshot of the state of parallel computing across a
carefully selected subset of industry domains, giving you a window into the lead-edge research occur-
ring across the breadth of science, and the opportunity to observe others’ algorithm work that might
apply to your own projects. Find out more at http://mkp.com/gpu-computing-gems.
