An Hybrid Data Transfer Optimization Technique for GPGPU
نویسندگان
چکیده
Graphical Processing Units (GPU) can provide tremendous computing power. Current NVidia and ATI hardware display a peak performance of hundreds of gigaflops. However, because of the data transfer speed between CPU and GPU is limited, those devices are difficult to use to accelerate numerical applications. In this paper we propose a software hybrid technique for automatically optimizing data transfer based on static and dynamic information on data accesses.

Modeling heat transfer of non-Newtonian nanofluids using hybrid ANN-Metaheuristic optimization algorithm
An optimal artificial neural network (ANN) has been developed to predict the Nusselt number of non-Newtonian nanofluids. The resulting ANN is a multi-layer perceptron with two hidden layers consisting of six and nine neurons, respectively. The tangent sigmoid transfer function is the best for both hidden layers and the linear transfer function is the best transfer function for the output layer....
