Parallelization of GSL: Performance of Case Studies
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we explore the parallelization of the scientific library from GNU both on shared-memory and distributed-memory architectures. A pair of classical operations, arising in sparse linear algebra and discrete mathematics, allow us to identify the major challenges involved in this task, and to analyze the performance, benefits, and drawbacks of two different possible parallelization approaches.

Vocabulary Lists for EAP and Conversation Students
Despite the abundance of research investigating general and academic vocabularies and developing dozens of word lists, few studies have compared academic vocabulary with general service word lists such as conversation vocabulary. Many EAP researchers assume that university students need to know all the words in West’s (1953) General Service List (GSL) as a prerequisite to academic words (e.g., ...
متن کاملImprovement and parallelization of Snort network intrusion detection mechanism using graphics processing unit
Nowadays, Network Intrusion Detection Systems (NIDS) are widely used to provide full security on computer networks. IDS are categorized into two primary types, including signature-based systems and anomaly-based systems. The former is more commonly used than the latter due to its lower error rate. The core of a signature-based IDS is the pattern matching. This process is inherently a computatio...
متن کاملParallelization of GSL: Architecture, Interfaces, and Programming Models
In this paper we present our efforts towards the design and development of a parallel version of the Scientific Library from GNU using MPI and OpenMP. Two well-known operations arising in discrete mathematics and sparse linear algebra illustrate the architecture and interfaces of the system. Our approach, though being a general high-level proposal, achieves for these two particular examples a p...
متن کاملA Study of Initial, Final and Growing Season Length in West of Iran
Objective: An increasing number of studies have reported on shifts in timing and length of the growing season, based on phonological, satellite and climatologically studies. Changes in the timing and length of the growing season (GSL) may not only have far reaching consequences for plant and animal ecosystems, but persistent increases in GSL may lead to long-term increases in carbon storage and...
متن کاملParallelization of Rich Models for Steganalysis of Digital Images using a CUDA-based Approach
There are several different methods to make an efficient strategy for steganalysis of digital images. A very powerful method in this area is rich model consisting of a large number of diverse sub-models in both spatial and transform domain that should be utilized. However, the extraction of a various types of features from an image is so time consuming in some steps, especially for training pha...
