Accelerating finite difference wavefield-continuation depth migration by GPU

Accelerating finite difference wavefield-continuation depth migration by GPU

We introduce a new hardware architecture, based on which the finite difference wavefield-continuation depth migration can be conducted using the GPU as a CPU coprocessor.

CUDA-MPI-FDTD implementation of Maxwell’s equations in general dispersive media

CUDA-MPI-FDTD implementation of Maxwell’s equations in general dispersive media

We present the first MPI-CUDA implementation of Finite-Difference Time-Domain (FDTD) discretization of Maxwell’s equations in dispersive media that uses the MPI API to assign each CPU node its share of the computational domain and GPUs to their corresponding CPU threads

Language identification using multi-core processors

Language identification using multi-core processors

We explore the application of GPUs to speech pattern processing, using language identification (LID) to demonstrate their benefits. Realization of the full potential of GPUs requires both effective coding of predetermined algorithms, and, if there is a choice, selection of the algorithm or technique for a specific function that is most able to exploit the GPU
