본 연구에서는 CUDA(Compute Unified Device Architecture) 포트란을 이용하여 확산파 강우 유출모형을 개발하였다. CUDA 포트란은 그래픽 처리 장치(Graphic Processing Unit: GPU)에서 수행하는 병렬 연산 알고리즘을 포트란 언어를 사용하여 작성할 수 있도록 하는 GPU상의 범용계산(General-Purpose Computing on Graphics Processing Units: GPGPU) 기술이다. GPU는 그래픽 처리 작업에 특화된 다수의 산술 논리 장치(Arithmetic Logic Unit: ALU)로 구성되어 있어서 중앙 처리 장치(Central Processing Unit: CPU)보다 한 번에 더 많은 연산 수행이 가능하다. 이에 따라, CUDA 포트란기반 확산파모형은 분포형 강우유출모형의 수치모의 연산시간을 단축시킬 수 있다. 분포형모형의 지배방정식은 확산파모형과 Green-Ampt모형으로 구성되었고, 확산파모형은 유한체적법을 이용하여 이산화 하였다. CUDA 포트란기반 확산파모형의 정확성은 기존 연구된 수리실험 결과 및 CPU기반 강우유출모형과 비교하였으며, 연산소요시간에 대한 효율성은 CPU기반 확산파모형과 비교하였다. 그 결과 CUDA 포트란기반 확산파모형의 결과는 수리실험 결과 및 CPU기반 강우유출모형의 결과와 유사한 결과를 나타냈다. 또한, 연산소요시간은 CPU 기반 확산파모형의 연산소요시간보다 단축되었으며, 본 연구에 사용된 장비를 기준으로 최대 100배 정도 단축되었다.

We develop an efficient numerical method for pricing the Derivative Linked Securities (DLS). The payoff structure of the hybrid DLS consists with a standard 2-Star step-down type ELS and the range accrual product which depends on the number of days in the coupon period that the index stay within the pre-determined range. We assume that the 2-dimensional Geometric Brownian Motion (GBM) as the model of two equities and a no-arbitrage interest model (One-factor Hull and White interest rate model) as a model for the interest rate. In this study, we employ the Monte Carlo simulation method with the Compute Unified Device Architecture (CUDA) parallel computing as the General Purpose computing on Graphic Processing Unit (GPGPU) technology for fast and efficient numerical valuation of DLS. Comparing the Monte Carlo method with single CPU computation or MPI implementation, the result of Monte Carlo simulation with CUDA parallel computing produces higher performance.

GPU (Graphics Processing Units) is consists of SIMD (Single Instruction Multiple Data) architecture and provides fast parallel processing. A GA (Genetic Algorithm), which requires large computations, is implemented in GPU using CUDA (Compute Unified Device Architecture). Three kinds of execution models are presented according to different combinations of processing modules in GPU. Comparison experiments between GPU models and CPU are tested for a couple of benchmark problems by variation of population sizes and complexity of problem sizes.

In this study, a graphics-processing-unit (GPU)-based acceleration technique is proposed for the feature-based image morphing. This technique uses the depth-buffer of the graphics hardware to calculate efficiently the shortest distance between a pixel and the control lines. The pairs of control lines between the source image and the destination image are determined by user's input, and the distance function of each control line is rendered using two rectangles and two cones. The distance between each pixel and its nearest control line is stored in the depth buffer through the graphics pipeline, and this is used to conduct the morphing operation efficiently. The pixel-unit morphing operation is parallelized using the compute unified device architecture (CUDA) to reduce the morphing time. We demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed technique using several experimental results.

Connected component labeling (CCL) is a mandatory step in image segmentation where objects are extracted and uniquely labeled. CCL is a computationally expensive operation and thus is often done in parallel processing framework to reduce execution time. Various parallel CCL methods have been proposed in the literature. Among them are NSZ label equivalence (NSZ-LE) method, modified 8 directional label selection (M8DLS) method, HYBRID1 method, and HYBRID2 method. Soh et al. showed that HYBRID2 outperforms the others and is the best so far. In this paper we propose a new hybrid parallel CCL algorithm termed as HYBRID3 that combines selective four directional label search (S4DLS) with label backtracking (LB). We show that the average percentage speedup of the proposed over M8DLS is around 60% more than that of HYBRID2 over M8DLS for various kinds of images.

Remote sensing allows acquisition of information across a large area without contacting objects, and has thus been rapidly developed by application to different areas. Thus, with the development of remote sensing, satellites are able to rapidly advance in terms of their image resolution. As a result, satellites that use remote sensing have been applied to conduct research across many areas of the world. However, while research on remote sensing is being implemented across various areas, research on data processing is presently insufficient; that is, as satellite resources are further developed, data processing continues to lag behind. Accordingly, this paper discusses plans to maximize the performance of satellite image processing by utilizing the CUDA(Compute Unified Device Architecture) Library of NVIDIA, a parallel processing technique. The discussion in this paper proceeds as follows. First, standard KOMPSAT(Korea Multi-Purpose Satellite) images of various sizes are subdivided into five types. NDVI(Normalized Difference Vegetation Index) is implemented to the subdivided images. Next, ArcMap and the two techniques, each based on CPU or GPU, are used to implement NDVI. The histograms of each image are then compared after each implementation to analyze the different processing speeds when using CPU and GPU. The results indicate that both the CPU version and GPU version images are equal with the ArcMap images, and after the histogram comparison, the NDVI code was correctly implemented. In terms of the processing speed, GPU showed 5 times faster results than CPU. Accordingly, this research shows that a parallel processing technique using CUDA Library can enhance the data processing speed of satellites images, and that this data processing benefits from multiple advanced remote sensing techniques as compared to a simple pixel computation like NDVI.
