Evolution of the GPU Device widely used in AI and Massive Parallel Processing
Toru Baji · 2018
While the CPU performance cannot benefits anymore from Moore's law, GPU (Graphic Processing Unit) still continue to increase its performance 1.5 times/year. From this reason, GPU is now widely used not only for computer graphics but also for massive parallel processing and AI (Artificial Intelligence). In this paper, the details of this continuous performance growth, the constant evolution in transistors count and die size, and the scalable GPU architecture will be described.
