- ParticlesGS Sample
- This sample implements a complete particle system on the GPU using the Direct3D 10 Geometry Shader, Stream Output, and DrawAuto. Particle system computation has traditionally been performed on the CPU with the GPU rendering the particles as point sprites for visualization. With Geometry Shaders, the ability to output arbitrary amounts...

- Real-Time Mesh Simplification Using the GPU
- Recent advances in real-time rendering have allowed the GPU implementation of traditionally CPU-restricted algorithms, often with performance increases of an order of magnitude or greater. Such gains are achieved by leveraging the large-scale parallelism of the GPU towards applications that are well-suited for these streaming architectures. By contrast, mesh simplification...

- Optimising Data Movement Rates for Parallel Processing Applications on Graphics Processors
- Graphics Processing UnitsGPUs are starting to play an increasingly important role in non-graphical applications which are highly parallelisable. With the latest graphics cards boasting a theoretical 165GFlops and 54GB/s memory bandwidth spread across 48 ALUs it is easy to see why. The GPU architecture is particularly suited to the parallel...

- Blink: Advanced Display Multiplexing for Virtualized Applications
- Providing untrusted applications with shared and safe access to modern display hardware is of increasing importance. The new display system, called Blink, safely multiplexes complex graphical content from multiple untrusted Virtual Machines onto a single Graphics Processing Unit GPU. Blink does not allow clients to program the GPU directly, but...

- A little more about passwords
- By now, you've probably heard about ElcomSoft's patent application for a procedure used to crack passwords 25 times as fast using a GPU instead of a CPU. The parallelization that goes on in the modern GPU is to blame for this kind of accelerated password cracking -- what we call...

- Efficient Histogram Generation Using Scattering on GPUs
- This paper presents an efficient algorithm to compute image histograms entirely on the GPU. Unlike previous implementations that use a gather approach, the paper takes advantage of scattering data through the vertex shader and of high-precision blending available on modern GPUs. This results in fewer operations executed per pixel and...

- A Performance-Oriented Data Parallel Virtual Machine for GPUs
- Existing GPU programming interfaces require that applications employ a graphics-centric programming model exported by a device driver tuned for real-time graphics and games. This programming model impedes development of non-graphics applications by hiding hardware resources behind its graphics-oriented interface. This paper presents a virtual machine abstraction for GPUs that provides...
