- support for multicore CPUs via OpenMP
- support for CUDA 3.0 and new GPUs based on the Fermi architecture
- support for the Ocelot virtual machine
- pseudo random number generation
- key-value reduction
- set intersection
- and many more
The Thrust web page provides a quick-start guide, online documentation, many examples and introductory slides. Thrust is open-source software distributed under the OSI-approved Apache License v2.0.
