survey of state-of-the-art programming frameworks for graphics processing units, GPUs

To begin, a brief introduction of the graphics processing unit (GPU) and parallel computing. Afterwards, we look into the three most popular programming platforms for GPUs in greater depth, and compare them on various criteria such as architectural model, programming model and so on, by demonstrating their similarity, differences, advantages and disadvantages in their code. Finally, we explain three of the most common parallel computing patterns, and then compare the three platforms by programming the patterns with using each of the three application frameworks. Finally, we have reached a decision
