fMRI analysis on the GPU – Possibilities and challenges

fMRI analysis on the GPU – Possibilities and challenges

| 23 January, 2012 | 0 Comments

We describe how to perform preprocessing and statistical analysis of fMRI data on the GPU. Non-parametric tests of fMRI data become practically feasible by using the GPU. GPUs are required to handle the future increase in spatial and temporal resolution. GPUs enable more advanced real-time analysis.

Achieving a single compute device image in OpenCL for multiple GPU

Achieving a single compute device image in OpenCL for multiple GPU

| 1 November, 2011 | 0 Comments

In this paper, we propose an OpenCL framework that combines multiple GPUs and treats them as a single compute device. Providing a single virtual compute device image to the user makes an OpenCL application written for a single GPU portable to the platform that has multiple GPU devices.
