What is the full form of GPU

(i) GPU: Graphic Processing Unit

GPU stands for "Graphics Processing Unit" in its complete form. Pictures and videos created by computers are called computer graphics, and whatever pictures or images we view on our computers and mobile devices; they usually go through the graphics processing unit.

The GPU is a co-processor that handles the graphic computations that the CPU formerly took. The initial launch of graphics-rich programmes increased the demand on the CPU to do quick processing in computers and mobile devices, although this burden has since been reduced. This is what the GPU was made to handle.

The function of the graphics processing unit is to render images, and since it uses parallel processing technology, the GPU is much faster than the CPU in rendering images to display on the computer's screen. The speed at which it can complete all graphical calculations at once improves the quality of the image and video.

Similar to this, if we consider mobile phones, the processor controls any applications or programmes that run on the device. In contrast, the GPU controls everything that appears on the screen, including animations, movies, photos, and games.

(ii) GPU: Ground Power Unit

GPU stands for "Ground Power Unit". An electrical device called a Ground Power Unit (GPU) is used to power an aeroplane while stationary. A permanent or portable ground power unit is one of the electrical systems most planes use to start up so that they may run or fly in the air.

Together with the battery, a ground power unit launches the aircraft and stores energy for after-takeoff and flight. Depending on the height and weight of the aircraft, the GPU may be either permanently anchored to the runway or moveable.

GPUs on the ground are comparable to those in an aircraft's avionics suite. They are designed for use with aircraft that help during the take-off and flying low. However, most pilots prefer to use a remote starter to start the plane from the ground than have to start the engine manually.

(iii) GPU: Global Peace and Unity

GPU stands for "Global Peace and Unity". The Islam Channel hosts the Global Peace and Unity (also known as GPU), an annual conference and two-day festival, at the ExCeL Exhibition Center in Royal Victoria Dock, London, England. The event is Europe's largest Muslim, interfaith, and multicultural gathering of its sort. There have been six conferences since the start. The first one happened on December 4, 2005, and there were others in 2006, 2007, 2008, 2010, and 2013. In 2006, there were about 55,000 attendees from five different continents. The conference features two days of presentations, workshops, seminars, and lectures from prominent worldwide speakers, in addition to an Islamic exposition and an evening of nasheed music.

The events' organisers claim that its goal is to bring together members of all facets of British society to teach and educate them about Islam and Muslims and, in doing so, help close the gap between Muslims and non-Muslims and foster better community relations.

(iv) GPU: General Purpose Uniform

GPU stands for "General Purpose Uniform". It is the renowned working uniform of the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF), incorporating rather intense, evident blue hues. Although the colour scheme is similar to digital camouflage, it cannot be used as tactical battledress. Once, RAAF commanders had come under fire and questioned the GPU's lack of functional adaptability across musterings and the assertion that the new uniform's introduction would be cost-neutral.

To offer air force personnel a distinctive and recognisable appearance, the Chief of Air Force, Air Marshal Geoff Brown, officially introduced the blue and grey uniform in 2014. For general base duties and in non-warlike circumstances like humanitarian work and defence assistance to the civil community, the General Purpose Uniform (GPU), also worn by the Australian Army, takes the place of the Disruptive Pattern Camouflage Uniform (DPCU).

High production of the GPU will replace the Air Force DPCUs, which are now in use. All Air Force troops were supposed to be furnished with various camouflage uniforms and GPUs by the end of 2015. The GPU is constructed using the Blue and Grey Cry Precision Australian Multicam patterns. The colours are also shown on aircraft, airfields, the RAAF Ensign, and the Service Dress uniform of the Royal Australian Air Force.
