Recently, parallel computing using GPGPU(General-Purpose computing on Graphics Processing Units) according to the development of the graphics processing unit is expanding. This can be achieved through the processing speeds faster than traditional computing environments across many fields, including science, medicine, engineering, and analysis. However, in using the GPU technology to implement the a parallel program there are many constraints. In this paper, we port a CPU-based program(Video Quality Measurement Program) to use technology. The program ported to GPU-based show about 1.83 times the execution speed than CPU-based program. We study on the acceleration of the GPU-based program. Also we discuss the technical constraints and problems that occur when you modify the CPU to the GPU-based programs.

Quantum-Inspired Evolutionary Algorithm(QEA) contains sufficient data-level parallelism to be naturally accelerated on GPUs. For an efficient reduction of execution time, however, careful task-mapping should be done to properly reflect the characteristics of CPU and GPU. Furthermore, when deciding which part of the application should run on GPU, we need to consider the data transfer between CPU and GPU memory spaces as well as the data-level parallelism. In addition, the usage of zero-copy host memory, proper choice of the execution configuration, and thread organization considering memory coalescing is important to further reduce the execution time. With all these techniques, we could run QEA 3.69 times faster on average in comparison with the multi-threading CPU for the case of 0-1 knapsack problem with 30,000 items.

To securely protect users' sensitive information and national secrets, the importance of cryptographic modules has been emphasized. Currently, many companies and national organizations are actively using cryptographic modules. In Korea, To ensure the security of these cryptographic modules, the cryptographic module has been verified through the Korea Certificate Module Validation Program(KCMVP). Most of the domestic cryptographic modules are CPU-based software (S/W). However, CPU-based cryptographic modules are difficult to use in servers that need to process large amounts of data. In this paper, we propose an S/W cryptographic module that provides a high-speed operation using GPU. We describe the configuration and operation of the S/W cryptographic module using GPU and present the changes in the cryptographic module security requirements by using GPU. In addition, we present the performance improvement compared to the existing CPU S/W cryptographic module. The results of this paper can be used for cryptographic modules that provide cryptography in servers that manage IoT (Internet of Things) or provide cloud computing.

Recently the performance of GPU is increasing much faster compared to GPU and GPU is used for various application programs. In this paper, MPEG-2 Decoder is implemented based on a GPU programming language, CG. The proposed methodology is to perform block rendering with texture data according to video standard with very high parallelism by using the pipeline of GPU which is a stream processing structure. To reduce the data bandwidth between system memory and GPU, local memory is used for graphic card. According to the experiment, the proposed scheme shows performance improvement by more than 2 times compared to CPU based scheme.

The graphic processor unit (GPU) has been developed to process not only graphic data but also general system data. It shows a better performance than CPU in algorithm for 3D graphics and parallel program. In order to execute algorithm for CPU on GPU, we should understand about GPU architectures and rewrite program considering parallel processing capability and new memory model of GPU. For this reasons, a performance prediction model for the algorithm and its predicted performance through GPU system are required. These can predict problems in GPU application development or construct a performance evaluation standard for GPU. In this paper, we applied the AES encryption algorithms on our performance model and accomplished performance prediction with high accuracy under a heavy workload.

In this paper, we implemented a CUDA Fortran parallel program to run the CFD_NIMR model on GP-GPU's, which simulates air diffusion on urban terrains. A GP-GPU is graphic processing unit in the form of a PCI card, and a general calculation accelerator to perform a large amount of high speed calculations with low cost and electric power. The GP-GPU gives performance enhancement of speed by 15 times to compare the Nvidia Tesla C1060 GPU with Intel XEON 2.0 GHz CPU. In addition, the program on a GP-GPU shows efficient performance compared to an MPI parallel program on multiple CPU's. It is expected that a proposed programming method on the GP-GPU parallel program can be used for numerical models with a similar structure.

In this paper, we propose a system for efficient use of shared memory between CPU and GPU. The system, called Fusion Architecture, assures consistency of the shared memory and minimizes cache misses that frequently occurs on Heterogeneous System Architecture or Unified Virtual Memory based systems. It also maximizes the performance for memory intensive jobs by efficient allocation of GPU cores. To test between architectures on various scenarios, we introduce the Fusion Architecture Analyzer, which compares OpenMP, OpenCL, CUDA, and the proposed architecture in terms of memory overhead and process time. As a result, Proposed fusion architectures show that the Fusion Architecture runs benchmarks 55% faster and reduces memory overheads by 220% in average.

Deep Neural Networks (DNN) has become an essential data processing architecture for the implementation of multiple computer vision tasks. Recently, DNN-based algorithms achieve much higher recognition accuracy than traditional algorithms based on shallow learning. However, training and inference DNNs require huge computational capabilities than daily usage purposes of computers. Moreover, with increased size and depth of DNNs, CPUs may be unsatisfactory since they use serial processing by default. GPUs are the solution that come up with greater speed compared to CPUs because of their Parallel Processing/Computation nature. In this paper, we analyze the inference time complexity of DNNs using well-known computer vision library, OpenCV. We measure and analyze inference time complexity for three cases, CPU, GPU-Float32, and GPU-Float16.

Graphics rendering pipeline (application, geometry, and rasterizer) is the core of real-time graphics which is the most important functionality for computer games. Usually this rendering process is completed by both the CPU and the GPU, and a bottleneck can be located either in the CPU or the GPU. This paper focuses on reducing the bottleneck between the CPU and the GPU. We are proposing a method for improving the performance of parallel processing for real-time graphics rendering by separating the CPU operations (usually performed using a thread) into two parts: pure CPU operations and operations related to the GPU, and let them operate in parallel. This allows for maximizing the parallelism in processing the communication between the CPU and the GPU. Some experiments lead us to confirm that our method proposed in this paper can allow for faster graphics rendering. In addition to our method of using a dedicated thread for GPU related operations, we are also proposing an algorithm for balancing the graphics pipeline using the idle time due to the bottleneck. We have implemented the two methods proposed in this paper in our networked 3D game engine and verified that our methods are effective in real systems.
