CMCpy: Genetic Code-Message Coevolution Models in PythonCode-message coevolution (CMC) models represent coevolution of a genetic code and a population of protein-coding genes ("messages"). Formally, CMC models are sets of quasispecies coupled together for fitness through a shared genetic code. Although CMC models display plausible explanations for the origin of multiple genetic code traits by natural selection, useful modern implementations of CMC models are not currently available. To meet this need we present CMCpy, an object-oriented Python API and command-line executable front-end that can reproduce all published results of CMC... March 31, 2013 · >>>

High Performance Computing using GPGPU’sComputer based simulation software having a basis in numerical methods play a major role in research in the area of natural and physical sciences. These tools allow scientists to attempt problems that are too large to solve using analytical methods. But even these tools can fail to give solutions due to computational or storage limits. However, as the performance of computer hardware gets better and better, the computational limits can be also addressed. One such area of work is that of magnetic field modeling, which plays a crucial role in various fields of research, especially those related... March 29, 2013 · >>>

Warp Size Impact in GPUs: Large or Small?There are a number of design decisions that impact a GPU's performance. Among such decisions deciding the right warp size can deeply influence the rest of the design. Small warps reduce the performance penalty associated with branch divergence at the expense of a reduction in memory coalescing. Large warps enhance memory coalescing significantly but also increase branch divergence. This leaves designers with two choices: use small warps and invest in finding new solutions to enhance coalescing or use large warps and address branch divergence employing effective control-flow solutions. In this... March 29, 2013 · >>>

Graphics Processing Unit Acceleration of the Explicit Solution of the Time Domain Volume Integral Equation Using OpenACCA graphics processing unit (GPU) accelerated implementation of the explicit solution of the time domain volume integral equation (TD-VIE) using the OpenACC application program interface (API) is presented. The use of the OpenACC API, which is based on a collection of compiler directives implementation, allows for the ease of porting as well as the efficient computation of the TD-VIE solver onto GPUs with up to 50X speedups over a single core serial implementation on a CPU.

Parallel Simulation of Population Balance Model-Based Particulate Processes Using Multicore CPUs and GPUsComputer-aided modeling and simulation are a crucial step in developing, integrating, and optimizing unit operations and subsequently the entire processes in the chemical/pharmaceutical industry. This study details two methods of reducing the computational time to solve complex process models, namely, the population balance model which given the source terms can be very computationally intensive. Population balance models are also widely used to describe the time evolutions and distributions of many particulate processes, and its efficient and quick simulation would be very beneficial. The...

Accelerating Graph Analysis with Heterogeneous SystemsData analysis is a rising field of interest for computer science research due to the growing amount of information that is digitally available. This increase in data has as direct consequence that any analysis is significantly complex. By using structured representations for the data sets, like graphs, the analysis becomes feasible, but is still time-consuming. In this project, the focus is on the reduction of the computational time for data analysis, with the introduction of accelerators. Accelerators are specialized hardware components that assist the general processing unit in performing... March 29, 2013 · >>>

Adaptive OpenCL (ACL) Execution in GPU ArchitecturesOpen Compute Language (OpenCL) has been proposed as a platform-independent, parallel execution model to target heterogeneous systems, including multiple central processing units, graphics processing units (GPUs), and digital signal processors (DSPs). OpenCL parallelism scales with the available resources and hardware generational improvements due to the data-parallel nature of its kernels. Such parallel expressions must adhere to a rigid execution model, essentially forcing the run-time system to behave as a batch-scheduler forsmall, local workgroups of a larger global problem. In many... March 26, 2013 · >>>

Parallel Sorting on the Heterogeneous AMD Fusion Accelerated Processing UnitWe explore efficient parallel radix sort for the AMD Fusion Accelerated Processing Unit (APU). Two challenges arise: efficiently partitioning data between the CPU and GPU and the allocation of data in memory regions. Our coarse-grained implementation utilizes both the GPU and CPU by sharing data at the begining and end of the sort. Our fine-grained implementation utilizes the APU's integrated memory system to share data throughout the sort. Both these implementations outperform the current state of the art GPU radix sort from NVIDIA. We therefore demonstrate that the CPU can be efficiently... March 26, 2013 · >>>

Accelerated Dictionary Learning with GPU/Multicore CPU and Its Application to Music ClassificationK-means clustering and GMM training, as dictionary learning procedures, lie at the heart of many signal processing applications. Increasing data scale requires more efficient ways to perform this process. In this paper a new GPU and multi-core CPU accelerated k-means clustering and GMM training is proposed. We show that both methods can be concisely reformulated into matrix multiplications which allows the application of NVIDIA Compute Unified Device Architecture (CUDA) implemented Basic Linear Algebra Subprograms (CUBLAS) and AMD Core Math Library (ACML) that are highly optimized matrix...

Improving Performance Portability in OpenCL ProgramsWe study the performance portability of OpenCL across diverse architectures including NVIDIA GPU, Intel Ivy Bridge CPU, and AMD Fusion APU. We present detailed performance analysis at assembly level on three exemplar OpenCL benchmarks: SGEMM, SpMV, and FFT. We also identify a number of tuning knobs that are critical to performance portability, including threads-data mapping, data layout, tiling size, data caching, and operation-specific factors. We further demonstrate that proper tuning could improve the OpenCL portable performance from the current 15% to a potential 67% of the... March 26, 2013 · >>>

Creating Optimal Code for GPU-Accelerated CT Reconstruction Using Ant Colony OptimizationPURPOSE: CT reconstruction algorithms implemented on the GPU are highly sensitive to their implementation details and the hardware they run on. Fine-tuning an implementation for optimal performance can be a time consuming task and require many updates when the hardware changes. There are some techniques that do automatic fine-tuning of GPU code. These techniques, however, are relatively narrow in their fine-tuning and are often based on heuristics which can be inaccurate. The goal of this paper is to present a framework that will automate the process of code optimization with maximum... March 26, 2013 · >>>
