In this paper, we describe the real-time parallel processing simulator developed for the use of performance analysis of rolling missiles. The real-time parallel processing simulator developed here consists of seeker emulator generating infrared image signal on aircraft, real-time computer, host computer, system unit, and actual equipments such as auto-pilot processor and seeker processor. Software is developed from mathematic models, 6 degree-of-freedom module, aerodynamic module which are resided in real-time computer, and graphic user interface program resided in host computer. The real-time computer consists of six TIC-40 processors connected in parallel. The seeker emulator is designed by using analog circuits coupled with mechanical equipments. The system unit provides interface function to match impedance between the components and processes very small electrical signals. Also real launch unit of missiles is interfaced to simulator through system unit. In order to apply the real-time parallel processing simulator to performance analysis equipment of rolling missiles it is essential to perform the performance verification test of simulator.

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.

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.

In this paper, we propose an adaptive variable-sized matching window method using the characteristic points of the image and a method to increase the reliability of the cross-consistency check to raise the correctness of the final disparity image. The proposed adaptive variable-sized window method segments the image with the color information, finds the characteristic points inside the window. Also the proposed algorithm implement using a graphic processing unit(GPU). The GPU, we used in this paper is GeForce GTX296 (NVIDIA) and we can use programming based on CUDA. The calculation speed realizes a speed approximately 128 times faster than that of a CPU.

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.

카메라를 갖춘 모바일 기기가 보편화되면서 모바일 환경에서 영상처리를 이용한 다양한 응용이 확산되고 있다. 영상은 다른 정보에 비해 데이터의 양이 비교적 방대하기 때문에 모바일 환경에서 영상처리를 수행하기 위해서는 처리속도, 전력, 발열 등의 물리적 제약조건이 존재할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제를 극복하기 위해 모바일 기기에서 코프로세서인 임베디드 GPU(Graphic Processing Unit)를 이용한 영상처리의 고속화 방법을 제시한다. 실험에서는 보편적으로 활용되는 영상처리 알고리즘에 대해 CPU(Central Processing Unit) 및 GPU 각각에서의 성능을 비교함으로써 고속화 방법의 우수성을 검증하고 특징을 분석하였다.

Virtual Reality(VR) technology is an interface technology that is actively used in various audio-visual-based applications by showing users a virtual world composed of computer graphics. Since VR-based applications are graphic processing-based applications, expensive computing devices equipped with Graphics Processing Unit(GPU) are essential for graphic processing. This incurs a cost burden on VR application users for maintaining and managing computing devices, and as one of the solutions to this, a method of operating services in cloud environments is being used. This paper proposes a performance management technique to address the problem of performance interference between containers owing to GPU resource competition in container-based high-performance cloud environments in which multiple containers share a single GPU. The proposed technique reduces performance deviation due to performance interference, helping provide uniform performance-based remote VR services for users. In addition, this paper verifies the efficiency of the proposed technique through experiments.
