About this tag
C++ AMP (Accelerated Massive Parallelism) is a Microsoft technology for heterogeneous computing that enables native developers to leverage GPGPU, APU, multi-core, and many-core processors. Introduced by Herb Sutter, C++ AMP aims to democratize parallel programming by lowering the barrier to entry for utilizing diverse hardware architectures. It was designed to work with Visual C++ and associated tooling, with support from AMD. The technology focuses on making parallel computing more accessible to C++ developers, allowing them to write code that can run on various accelerators without requiring specialized knowledge of GPU programming. This tag covers discussions and announcements related to C++ AMP's capabilities and its role in the evolution of parallel computing on Windows platforms.
