CUDA (Compute Unified Device Architecture) is a proprietary parallel computing platform and application programming interface (API) that allows software to use certain types of graphics processing units (GPUs) for accelerated general-purpose processing, significantly broadening their utility in scientific and high-performance computing. CUDA was created by Nvidia starting in 2004 and was officially released in 2007. When it was first introduced, the name was an acronym for Compute Unified Device Architecture, but Nvidia later dropped the common use of the acronym and now rarely expands it.

CUDA(Compute Unified Device Architecture:クーダ)とは、NVIDIAが開発・提供している、GPU向けの汎用並列コンピューティングプラットフォーム(並列コンピューティングアーキテクチャ)およびプログラミングモデルである。専用のC/C++コンパイラ (nvcc) やライブラリ (API) などが提供されている。なおNVIDIA製GPUにおいては、OpenCL/DirectComputeなどの類似APIコールは、すべて共通のGPGPUプラットフォームであるCUDAを経由することになる。
