Here we’ll briefly list a number of applications with GPU support, which framework they work with, and if published how GPU is used in the application. Please note that this list isn’t comprehensive, it simply contains major apps and relevant easily accessible information. Nvidia provides it’s own list of CUDA accelerated apps. For OpenCL it can be a little harder to find out which apps support the framework, Google is normally the best method.
