Computation using the Graphics Processor

Computer graphics is a widely studied field with applications in the areas 
of Computer Aided Design, image processing,visualization, computer games, 
education etc.

The performance and functionality of graphics processors has been 
increasing at tremendous pace. Traditionally , graphics processors has 
been used primarily for fast rendering of geometric objects. However, in 
recent years , the increased power of graphics hardware has led to its use 
for general purpose computation.

In this talk, I would like to discuss to describe various processes 
involved in graphics rendering. I would discuss the graphics pipeline and 
then throw some light on various operations that can be performed by the 
graphics processors.
