  1. 26. Parallelization of ray casting for solar irradiance calculations in urban environments

    University essay from Högskolan i Gävle/Samhällsbyggnad, GIS

    Author : Patrick Eggers; [2017]
    Keywords : Solar Radiation; Parallelization; Simulation; Hardware Architecture; Ray-casting;

    Abstract : The growing amount of photovoltaic systems in urban environments creates peaks of energy generation in local energy grids. These peaks can lead to unwanted instability in the electrical grid. By aligning solar panels differently, spikes could be avoided. READ MORE

  2. 27. Implementation of Fast Real-Time Control of Unstable Modes in Fusion Plasma Devices

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för fysik och astronomi

    Author : Martin Lundberg; [2017]
    Keywords : Fusion plasma; MHD control; CUDA;

    Abstract : In recent years, multi-core graphics processing units (GPUs) have been increasingly used by researchers for other purposes than rendering graphics. This thesis presents the implementation of GPU computing for real-time control of plasma instabilities known as resistive wall modes at the EXTRAP T2R fusion plasma device. READ MORE

  3. 28. Long Short-Term Memory Recurrent Neural Network for detecting DDoS flooding attacks within TensorFlow Implementation framework.

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Datavetenskap

    Author : Peter Ken Bediako; [2017]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks is one of the most widespread security attacks to internet service providers. It is the most easily launched attack, but very difficult and expensive to detect and mitigate. READ MORE

  4. 29. Creating memory bandwidth contention with best intentions

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologi

    Author : George John Chiramel; [2016]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Heterogeneous System Architecture (HSA) is a computing system architecture that integrates central processing unit (CPU) and graphics processing unit (GPU) with a shared off-chip main memory. On one hand, sharing the memory reduces the communication latency between CPU and GPU but on the other hand, sharing can lead to contention for shared resources. READ MORE

  5. 30. Pricing of American Options by Adaptive Tree Methods on GPUs

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Avdelningen för beräkningsvetenskap

    Author : Jacob Lundgren; [2015]
    Keywords : GPU; Graphics Processing Unit; American Options; Computer Hardware; High Performance Computing; Computational Finance; Scientific Computing; Mathematical Finance; Parallel Programming;

    Abstract : An assembled algorithm for pricing American options with absolute, discrete dividends using adaptive lattice methods is described. Considerations for hardware-conscious programming on both CPU and GPU platforms are discussed, to provide a foundation for the investigation of several approaches for deploying the program onto GPU architectures.
