Open-source library that provides high-level access to parallel streaming computations on a variety of processors, including GPUs.
Currently, Brahma has a GPU provider but its modular structure allows using different providers for other types of processors. One C# method can contain both statements running on CPU and GPU without additional glue code.
Brahma performs parallel computations by transforming LINQ statements into programs that run on the target processor. The program generated contains High Level Shading Language statements if it was targeted for DirectX or OpenGL Shading Language statements if it was targeted for OpenGL. For performance improvements LINQ queries are compiled once and used many times as necessary.
