  • Recently the attention on digital hologram that is regarded as to be the final goal of the 3-dimensional video technology has been increased. Digital hologram is calculated by modeling the interference phenomenon between an object wave and a reference wave. The modeling for digital holograms is called by computer generated hologram (CGH) Generally, CGH requires a very large amount of calculation. So if holograms are generated in real time, high-speed method should be needed. In this paper, we analyzed CGH equation, optimized it for mapping general purpose graphic processing unit (GPGPU), and proposed a optimized CGH calculation technique for GPGPU by resource allocation and various experiments which include block size changing, memory selection, and hologram tiling. The implemented results showed that a digital hologram that has $1,024{\times}1,024$ resolution can be generated during approximately 24ms, using 1K point clouds. In the experiment, we used two GTX 580 GPGPU of nVidia Inc.

  • General Purpose Graphic Processing Unit (GPGPU) computing is a technique that utilizes the high-performance many-core processors of high-end graphic cards for general-purpose computations such as 3D graphics, video/image processing, computer vision, scientific computing, HPC and many more. GPGPUs offer a vast amount of raw computing power, but programming is extremely challenging because of hardware idiosyncrasies. The open computing language (OpenCL) has been proposed as a vendor-independent GPGPU programming interface. OpenCL is very close to the hardware and thus does little to increase GPGPU programmability. In this paper we present how a set of digital camera image signal processing (ISP) filters can be realized efficiently on GPGPUs using OpenCL. Although we found ISP filters to be memory-bound computations, our GPGPU implementations achieve speedups of up to a factor of 64.8 over their sequential counterparts. On GPGPUs, our proposed optimizations achieved speedups between 145% and 275% over their baseline GPGPU implementations. Our experiments have been conducted on a Geforce GTX 275; because of OpenCL we expect our optimizations to be applicable to other architectures as well.

  • A large amount of computation is required to generate a hologram using a computer. In order to accelerate the computation, many methods of acceleration by parallel programming using GPGPU(General Purpose computing on Graphic Process Unit) have been researched. In this paper, we propose a method of reducing the bottleneck caused by hologram pixel based parallel processing and using the shareable variables. We also propose how to optimize using Visual Profiler supported by nVidia's CUDA to make threads work optimally. The experimental results show that the proposed method reduces the calculation time by up to 40% compared with the existing research.

  • In this paper, SIMT structure based GPGPU (General Purpose Computing on Graphics Processing Units) is used for accelerating the Rasterizer which constitutes the screen of the display device in pixel unit. The GPU has a large number of ALUs, and the processing is very fast because of parallel processing. Therefore, in this paper, we implemented a rasterizer that generates a 3D graphics model using a CPU that performs operations sequentially and a GPU that performs operations in parallel. We confirmed that proposed rasterizer in this paper is 1.45 times better than rasterizer using Intel CPU when generating one frame.

  • Modern GPU can execute general purpose computation on the graphic processing unit, and provide high performance by exploiting many core on GPU. To run AES algorithm efficiently, parallel computational resources are required. However, computational resource of CPU architecture are not enough to cryptographic algorithm such as AES whereas GPU architecture has mass parallel computation resources. Therefore, this paper reduce the time to execute AES by employing parallel computational resource on GPGPU. Unfortunately, AES cannot utilize computational resource on GPGPU since it isn't suitable to GPGPU architecture. In this paper, IPC based dynamic SM management technique are proposed to efficiently execute AES on GPGPU. IPC based dynamic SM management can increase and decrease the number of active SMs by using IPC in run-time. According to simulation results, proposed technique improve the performance by increasing resource utilization compared to baseline GPGPU architecture. The results show that AES improve the performance by 41.2% on average.

  • Recently, a lot of general-purpose application programs in addition to graphic applications have been parallelized for boosting their performance using Graphic Processing Unit (GPU)'s excellent floating-point performance. In order to maximize the application performance on GPUs, optimizing the memory hierarchy and the on-chip caches such as the shared memory is essential. In this paper, we propose techniques to optimize the shared memory, and verify its effectiveness using a pattern matching application program.

  • Many studies have utilized GPGPU (General-Purpose Graphic Processing Unit) and its high computing power to compute complex tasks. The characteristics of GPGPU programs necessitate the operations of memory copy between the host and device. A high latency period can affect the performance of the program. Thus, it is required to significantly improve the performance of GPGPU programs by optimizations. By executing multiple GPGPU programs simultaneously, the latency hiding effect of memory copy is achieved by overlapping the memory copy and computing operations in GPGPU. This paper presents the results of analyzing the latency hiding effect for memory copy operations. Furthermore, we propose a performance anticipation model and an algorithm for the limitations of using pinned memory, and show that the use of the proposed algorithm results in a 41% performance increase.

  • 클라우드 컴퓨팅 환경에서는 고성능 컴퓨팅을 지원하기 위해 사용자에게 GPU(Graphic Processing Unit)가 할당된 가상머신을 제공하여 사용자가 고성능 응용을 실행할 수 있도록 지원한다. 일반적인 컴퓨팅 환경에서 한 명의 사용자가 GPU를 독점해서 사용하기 때문에 자원 경쟁으로 인한 문제가 상대적으로 적게 발생하지만 독립적인 여러 사용자가 컴퓨팅 자원을 공유하는 클라우드 환경에서는 자원 경쟁으로 인해 서로 성능 영향을 미치는 문제를 발생시킨다. 본 논문에서는 여러 개의 가상머신이 단일 GPU를 공유하는 RPC(Remote Procedure Call) 기반 GPU 가상화 환경에서 다수의 가상머신이 GPGPU(General Purpose computing on Graphics Processing Units) 작업을 수행할 때 GPU 메모리 입력 경쟁으로 인해 발생하는 커널 함수의 실행 지연 문제를 분석한다.

  • Computer-generated hologram (CGH) is to mathematically model optical phenomenon with digital computer. Because it requires huge amount of computational power, a fast and high performance technique is needed. In this paper, we proposed two parallelizations for CGH calculation. The first is to parallelize CGH algorithm in a GPU (general processing unit) and the second is to parallelize multiple GPUs. The proposed algorithm was implemented in GTX780 Ti GPU. It calculates a $1,024{\times}1,024$ hologram with 10K object points for about 24ms.

  • 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.
