Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) have become increasingly powerful over the last decade. Programs taking advantage of this architecture can achieve large performance gains and almost all new solutions and initiatives in high performance computing are aimed in that direction. To write programs that can offload the computation onto the GPU and utilize its power, new technologies are needed. The recent introduction of Open Computing Language (OpenCL), a standard for cross-platform, parallel programming of modern processors, has made a step in the right direction. Code written with OpenCL can run on a wide variety of platforms, adapting to the underlying architecture. It is versatile yet easy to learn due to similarities with the C programming language. In this paper, we will review the current state of the art in the use of GPUs and OpenCL for parallel computations. We use an implementation of the n-body simulation to illustrate some important considerations in developing OpenCL programs.
