A sample program hit the Internet on Wednesday, showing by example how malicious coders could compromise Windows computers by using a flaw in the handling of a widespread graphics format by ...

A new programming language for image-processing algorithms yields code that's much shorter and clearer -- but also faster. Image-processing software is a hot commodity: Just look at Instagram, a ...

The whiteboard in Professor Mark Stehlik’s office at Carnegie Mellon University still has the details of what turned into a ...

This course focuses on developing and optimizing applications software on massively parallel graphics processing units (GPUs). Such processing units routinely come with hundreds to thousands of cores ...

There's something about 3-D graphics that just draws you in. Even though I have a degree in Mathematics, I've always had the impression that programming in 3-D would be difficult. I've recently ...

OpenGL is a well-known standard for generating 3-D as well as 2-D graphics that is extremely powerful and has many capabilities. OpenGL is defined and released by the OpenGL Architecture Review Board ...

Traditional computer programming has a steep learning curve that requires learning a programming language, for example C/C++, Java or Python, just to build a simple application such as a calculator or ...

A hands-on introduction to parallel programming and optimizations for 1000+ core GPU processors, their architecture, the CUDA programming model, and performance analysis. Students implement various ...
