C++ is a powerful programming language, which is widely used in many fields, especially in the embedded system. C++ is a statically typed, compiled programming language for general-purpose programming. It is also considered to be an intermediate-level language, as it comprises both high-level and low-level language features. These features make C++ a popular choice in the software industry and allow developers to create efficient applications that can be used in various domains. GPU libraries are widely used to accelerate the performance of matrix calculations, image processing and machine learning. GPUs are used not only in gaming and entertainment, but also in modern science. The number of computations that can be done on a GPU is significant. A few of the most popular open source libraries for C++ GPU are: Tensor RT - Tensor RT is a C library for high performance inference on NVIDIA GPUs and deep learning accelerators; array fire - Array Fire: a general purpose GPU library; compute - A C GPU Computing Library for OpenCL.
