Abstract: With the fast development of GPU, the general purpose computation becomes a new research field. This paper analyzes the GPU programming model, introduces how to accomplish general purpose on GPU, and maps some common algorithm to GPU. Comparing with computation with CPU, it gets the advantage and disadvantage of computation with GPU.

Key words: GPU, general purpose computation, graphic hardware
