We propose a way of preventing race conditions in the evaluation of the surface integral contribution in discontinuous Galerkin and finite volume flow solvers by coloring the edges (or faces) of the computational mesh. In this work we use a partitioning algorithm that separates the edges of triangular elements into three groups and the faces […]

Compact finite difference schemes are widely used in the direct numerical simulation of fluid flows for their ability to better resolve the small scales of turbulence. However, they can be expensive to evaluate and difficult to parallelize. In this work, we present an approach for the computation of compact finite differences and similar tridiagonal schemes […]

Betweenness Centrality (BC) is steadily growing in popularity as a metrics of the influence of a vertex in a graph. The BC score of a vertex is proportional to the number of all-pairs-shortest-paths passing through it. However, complete and exact BC computation for a large-scale graph is an extraordinary challenge that requires high performance computing […]

The authoring of realistic terrain models is necessary to generate immersive virtual environments for computer games and film visual effects. However, creating these landscapes is difficult – it usually involves an artist spending many hours sculpting a model in a 3D design program. Specialised terrain generation programs exist to rapidly create artificial terrains, such as […]

The confluence of the rapid growth in electronic data in recent years, and the renewed interest in domain-specific hardware accelerators presents exciting technical opportunities. Traditional scale-out solutions for processing the vast amounts of text data have been shown to be energy- and cost-inefficient. In contrast, custom hardware accelerators can provide higher throughputs, lower latencies, and […]

Measuring the similarity between two streamlines is fundamental to many important flow data analysis and visualization tasks such as feature detection, pattern querying and streamline clustering. This dissertation presents a novel streamline similarity measure inspired by the bag-of-features concept from computer vision. Different from other streamline similarity measures, the proposed one considers both the distribution […]

Power density constraints are limiting the performance improvements of modern CPUs. To address this we have seen the introduction of lower-power, multi-core processors such as GPGPU, ARM and Intel MIC. To stay within the power density limits but still obtain Moore’s Law performance/price gains, it will be necessary to parallelize algorithms to exploit larger numbers […]

Current embedded multi object tracking system implementations are dominated by the use of Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) and Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs) as application accelerators. These offer many of the traits desirable for embedded and real time systems, including; task oriented architectures, deterministic latency and low power requirements. The drawbacks to these approaches […]
