In this video, Nvidia’s Ian Buck presents: GPU Computing: Past, Present & Future.

Learn how the GPU evolved from its humble beginning as a “VGA Accelerator” to become a massively parallel general purpose accelerator for heterogeneous computing systems. This talk will focus on significant milestones in GPU hardware architecture and software programming models, covering several key concepts that demonstrate why advances in GPU parallel processing performance and power efficiency will continue to outpace CPUs.

Recorded at the GPU Technology Conference on Dec. 15, 2011.
