Last level cache management and core interconnection network play important roles in performance and power consumption in multicore system. Large scale chip multicore uses mesh interconnect widely due to scalability and simplicity of the mesh interconnection design. As interconnection network occupied significant area and consumes significant percent of system power, bufferless network is an appealing […]

Recent research has repeatedly shown that machine learning techniques can be applied to either whole files or file fragments to classify them for analysis. We build upon these techniques to show that for samples of un-labeled compiled computer object code, one can apply the same type of analysis to classify important aspects of the code, […]

Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) are being widely used to improve performance of machine learning and logic programming systems. Next, we propose using this technique to improve the performance of Markov logic programs. In this paper we focus on the first step of the inference phase, the grounding of first-order logical formulas composing a Markov network. […]

You will learn best practices for cloud deployment, for cluster and job management, and for the management of third-party software. This whitepaper covers HPC use cases that include highly distributed, highly parallel grid computing applications, […]

Computation power to simulate sound fields from the three-dimensional numerical models has progressed fast; for example, using GPU cluster systems. We can render directivity, position, distance, and reverberation of sound sources in a practical time. Furthermore, a multichannel sound field system can be realized with low-cost digital-to-analog converter modules. Moreover, some researchers are trying to […]

Image restoration is a long-standing problem in low-level computer vision with many interesting applications. We describe a flexible learning framework to obtain simple but effective models for various image restoration problems. The proposed approach is based on the concept of nonlinear reaction diffusion, but we extend conventional nonlinear reaction diffusion models by highly parametrized linear […]

‘How can GPU acceleration be obtained as a service in a cluster?’ This question has become increasingly significant due to the inefficiency of installing GPUs on all nodes of a cluster. The research reported in this paper is motivated to address the above question by employing rCUDA (remote CUDA), a framework that facilitates Acceleration-as-a-Service (AaaS), […]

CONTEXT: Simulating realistic fluid behavior in incompressible fluids for computer graphics has been pioneered with the implicit incompressible smoothed particle hydrodynamics (IISPH) solver. The algorithm converges faster than other incompressible SPH-solvers, but real-time performance (in the perspective of video games, 30 frames per second) is still an issue when the particle count increases. OBJECTIVES: This […]

We compare the performance of two very different parallel gravitational N-body codes for astrophysical simulations on large GPU clusters, both pioneer in their own fields as well as in certain mutual scales – NBODY6++ and Bonsai. We carry out the benchmark of the two codes by analyzing their performance, accuracy and efficiency through the modeling […]

Feynman loop integral is the key ingredient of high order radiation effect, which is responsible for reliable and accurate theoretical prediction. We improve the efficiency of numerical integration in sector decomposition by implementing quasi-Monte Carlo method associated with the technique of CUDA/GPU. For demonstration we present the results of several Feynman integrals up to two […]

The recent rise in the popularity of mobile computing has brought the attention of mobile security to the forefront. As users depend more on tablets and smartphones, sensitive data is left to be secured using devices with vastly weaker resources than a typical computer. As mobile technology matures, the industry is starting to provide devices […]
