Applications of CUDA Programming Language

CUDA (Compute Unified Device Architecture) is a parallel computing platform and application programming interface (API) developed by NVIDIA. It enables developers to use the power of NVIDIA GPUs for general-purpose processing, also known as GPGPU (General-Purpose computing on Graphics Processing Units). Since its inception, CUDA has become a popular tool for accelerating computationally intensive tasks across various fields. CUDA’s design allows developers to write programs that execute on the GPU, offloading the work from the CPU and exploiting the highly parallel architecture of modern GPUs for improved performance. The applications of CUDA are wide-ranging and impactful across many industries. Below are some key areas where CUDA has made significant contributions.
