General-Purpose Computing on Graphics Processing Units (GPGPU) refers to the use of a Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) for performing computation traditionally handled by the Central Processing Unit (CPU). GPGPU takes advantage of the GPU's parallel processing capabilities to perform complex calculations much more efficiently than standard CPUs for certain types of workloads.
