16. Hydraulic Erosion Simulation on the GPU for 3D terrains
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : Erosion is the action of various natural processes, such as water flow, wind and gravity, that displaces material from one area to another. Creating physically-based models of these complex phenomena has been a major challenge in creating realistic terrain in video games in a fast way, without having a 3D artist model the terrain by hand.

17. Integrating SkePU's algorithmic skeletons with GPI on a cluster
University essay from Linköpings universitet/Programvara och systemAbstract : As processors' clock-speed flattened out in the early 2000s, multi-core processors became more prevalent and so did parallel programming. However this programming paradigm introduces additional complexities, and to combat this, the SkePU framework was created. READ MORE

18. A systematic performance study of the parallel programming framework SkePU 3 using HPC-benchmarks
University essay from Linköpings universitet/Programvara och systemAbstract : With hardware performance no longer following Moore’s law, software optimization becomes more important. In this paper, we discuss parallel programming, which is one way to optimize software. However, writing parallel code is considered more difficult than writing sequential code. READ MORE

19. Towards an Efficient Spectral Element Solver for Poisson’s Equation on Heterogeneous Platforms
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : Neko is a project at KTH to refactor the widely used fluid dynamics solver Nek5000 to support modern hardware. Many aspects of the solver need adapting for use on GPUs, and one such part is the main communication kernel, the Gather-Scatter (GS) routine. To avoid race conditions in the kernel, atomic operations are used, which can be inefficient. READ MORE

20. Global Illumination on Modern GPUs
University essay from Linköpings universitet/Medie- och Informationsteknik; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska fakultetenAbstract : This thesis that implemented Monte Carlo path tracing and voxel cone tracing for global illumination on GPU compared the performance and visual result. The Monte Carlo path tracing algorithm is implemented in CUDA to do parallel computing on GPU and accelerate the computing speed. READ MORE
