(Phys.org) —A doctoral candidate in computer science has come up with a programming language, Harlan, that can leverage the computing power of a GPU. His contribution may turn a corner in working with GPU applications, He just released a programming language called Harlan. It's all new and it's totally dedicated to building applications that run GPUs. The Harlan creator is Eric Holk of Indiana University. As a doctoral candidate, his interests, he said, focus on designing and implementing programming languages that can ease up the production of reliable software that performs well. Easier professed than done, some may argue, when it comes to involvement with GPUs.
