Global Microprocessor and GPU Market - Key Trends & Drivers Summarized
Microprocessors and GPUs (Graphics Processing Units) are critical components in modern computing, driving the performance of everything from personal computers and smartphones to servers and supercomputers. A microprocessor, often considered the brain of the computer, executes a sequence of stored instructions called a program. This component is responsible for performing the arithmetic, logic, controlling, and input/output (I/O) operations specified by the instructions. On the other hand, a GPU is a specialized electronic circuit designed to rapidly manipulate and alter memory to accelerate the creation of images in a frame buffer intended for output to a display device. GPUs are particularly effective at handling computer graphics and image processing tasks. Their highly parallel structure makes them more efficient than general-purpose CPUs for algorithms where processing of large blocks of data is done in parallel.In recent years, the role of GPUs has expanded beyond just graphic rendering to more complex computational tasks such as deep learning, artificial intelligence (AI), and big data analysis.
