Using efficient parallelization in Graphic Processing Units to parameterize stochastic fire propagation models
Wildfires are a major concern in Argentinian northwestern Patagonia and in many ecosystems and human societies around the world. We developed an efficient cellular automata model in Graphic Processing Units (GPUs) to simulate fire propagation. The graphical advantages of GPUs were exploited by overlapping wind direction, as well as vegetation, slope, and aspect maps, taking into account relevan...
متن کاملEfficient Bayesian inference in stochastic chemical kinetic models using graphical processing units
A goal of systems biology is to understand the dynamics of intracellular systems. Stochastic chemical kinetic models are often utilized to accurately capture the stochastic nature of these systems due to low numbers of molecules. Collecting system data allows for estimation of stochastic chemical kinetic rate parameters. We describe a well-known, but typically impractical data augmentation Mark...
متن کاملAccelerated Conformational Entropy Calculations Using Graphic Processing Units
Conformational entropy calculation, usually computed by normal-mode analysis (NMA) or quasi harmonic analysis (QHA), is extremely time-consuming. Here, instead of NMA or QHA, a solvent accessible surface area (SASA) based model was employed to compute the conformational entropy, and a new fast GPU-based method called MURCIA (Molecular Unburied Rapid Calculation of Individual Areas) was implemen...
متن کاملAccelerating VASP electronic structure calculations using graphic processing units
We present a way to improve the performance of the electronic structure Vienna Ab initio Simulation Package (VASP) program. We show that high-performance computers equipped with graphics processing units (GPUs) as accelerators may reduce drastically the computation time when offloading these sections to the graphic chips. The procedure consists of (i) profiling the performance of the code to is...
متن کاملCellular Genetic Algorithm on Graphic Processing Units
The availability of low cost powerful parallel graphic cards has estimulated a trend to implement diverse algorithms on Graphic Processing Units (GPUs). In this paper we describe the design of a parallel Cellular Genetic Algorithm (cGA) on a GPU and then evaluate its performance. Beyond the existing works on masterslave for fitness evaluation, we here implement a cGA exploiting data and instruc...
