NVIDIA® CUDA(TM) is a general purpose parallel computing architecture that leverages the parallel compute engine in NVIDIA graphics processing units (GPUs) to solve many complex computational problems in a fraction of the time required on a CPU. It includes the CUDA Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) and the parallel compute engine in the GPU. To program to the CUDA(TM) architecture, developers can, today, use C, one of the most widely used high-level programming languages, which can then be run at great performance on a CUDA(TM) enabled processor. Other languages will be supported in the future, including FORTRAN and C++.
