Don't use GPGPU instead of GPU #62

Closed JJ closed 5 years ago

JJ commented 5 years ago

A GPGPU is just a description of a method that uses a GPU for something other than graphic rendering. It's not a term you should use to describe the actual GPU.

Do you mean we should change GPGPU to GPU?

JJ commented 5 years ago

Only if that's what you mean. Point is, they're different things and the paper uses Gpgpu when it should use gpu in many cases

You can't simply use GPGPU by itself. It refers to something: GPGPU programming, GPGPU framework, GPGPU algorithm.
