The system processes raw data from marine navigation radars using a variety of thresholding techniques to extract real targets from clutter. This involves highly data-parallel processing in which each radar pulse is subjected to the same computations; very few operations occur across multiple pulses. Using ArrayFire software, SPC has achieved 10x speed improvements relative to a Core i7-920 CPU and 5x improvements relative to a realtime DSP implementation.[/accordion_item]\r\n\r\n[accordion_item title=\"Novel Algorithms for Linear Algebra | SAIC\" ]\r\n\r\nAuthors: Nolan Davis and Daniel Redig, SAIC\r\nSpeedup: 3.5X\r\n\r\nNolan Davis and Daniel Redig at SAIC recently presented work on Hybrid GPU/Multicore Solutions for Large Linear Algebra Problems where they developed a novel algorithm for LU decomposition, one of the most important routines in linear algebra.

For most people, tsunamis are underrated as major hazards. People sometimes wrongly believe that they occur infrequently and only along distant coasts. Tsunamis are usually caused by earthquakes. Seismic signals can give some margin of warning since the speed of tsunami waves travels at 1/30 the speed of seismic waves. Still there is little time between the creation of the tsunami and its impact making fast processing critical to producing effective warning systems. ArrayFire software was used to run an RBF simulation on the GPU with a time to solution not available by other alternatives.\r\n[/accordion_item][/accordion]\r\n<h5>Life Sciences</h5>\r\n[accordion][accordion_item title=\"Parallelized Gene Predictors | University of Quebec\" ]\r\n\r\nAuthors: University of Quebec\r\nSpeedup: 43X\r\n\r\nComputerized approaches to studying the human genome are challenged by the exploding amount of data, which doubles roughly every 6 months. In order to deal with this burgeoning datasets, demands for faster processing power continue to arise. This work focuses on predicting genes using frequency analysis with FFTs and with an equivalent technique known as Goertzel\'s algorithm. In these applications, the emphasis of this paper is to propose tools to geneticists and molecular biologists for the prediction or identification of new genes using existing complementary strategies. The criteria for these tools are speed, reliability, accuracy and ease of use, thus requiring little training.\r\n[/accordion_item]\r\n[accordion_item title=\"Pathology Advances with GPUs | Northeastern University\" ]\r\n\r\nAuthors: Laboratory for Spectral Diagnosis at Northeastern University\r\nSpeedup: 100X+\r\n\r\nOne element of the hyperspectral image analysis workflow that requires more than a traditional desktop workstation or personal computer is Hierarchical Cluster analysis (HCA). HCA requires a large amount of data space and substantial computation time (~11 hours) for typical datasets using a single processor personal computer. Rather than following the traditional approach of moving to a lower level programming language like C or C++ and complex parallel programming paradigms such as OpenMP or the Massage Passing Interface (MPI), the lab utilized graphics processing units, or GPUs, and the ArrayFire software platform. The solution allowed the lab to dramatically increase the performance of the analysis while substantially decreasing the amount of calendar time to reach the desired results.\r\n[/accordion_item]\r\n[accordion_item title=\"Hepatitis C Virus - Mutation Modeling | Centers for Disease Control and Prevention\" ]\r\n\r\nAuthors: CDC Research and Development Team\r\nSpeedup: ~20X\r\n\r\nThis case study provides a look at biological research regarding coordinated mutations of the Hepatitis C Virus (HCV).

As a result, many imaging algorithms apply FFT-based approximations. While efficient, these algorithms sacrifice data fidelity for speed. Other algorithms better preserve information, but are often too slow for many applications. At System Planning Corporation (SPC) , we have implemented a SAR/ISAR imaging routine based on the Backprojection algorithm. Using ArrayFire software, we have demonstrated speedups of roughly 45x for large datasets.[/accordion_item]\n\n[accordion_item title=\"Radar Clutter Reduction | System Planning Corporation\"]\n\nAuthors: David Berger and Gary Rubin - System Planning Corporation\nSpeedup: 5-10X\n\nSystem Planning Corporation (SPC) uses ArrayFire software to accelerate radar processing algorithms. The system processes raw data from marine navigation radars using a variety of thresholding techniques to extract real targets from clutter. This involves highly data-parallel processing in which each radar pulse is subjected to the same computations; very few operations occur across multiple pulses.

For most people, tsunamis are underrated as major hazards. People sometimes wrongly believe that they occur infrequently and only along distant coasts. Tsunamis are usually caused by earthquakes. Seismic signals can give some margin of warning since the speed of tsunami waves travels at 1/30 the speed of seismic waves. Still there is little time between the creation of the tsunami and its impact making fast processing critical to producing effective warning systems. ArrayFire software was used to run an RBF simulation on the GPU with a time to solution not available by other alternatives.\n[/accordion_item][/accordion]\n<h5>Life Sciences</h5>\n[accordion][accordion_item title=\"Parallelized Gene Predictors | University of Quebec\" ]\n\nAuthors: University of Quebec\nSpeedup: 43X\n\nComputerized approaches to studying the human genome are challenged by the exploding amount of data, which doubles roughly every 6 months. In order to deal with this burgeoning datasets, demands for faster processing power continue to arise. This work focuses on predicting genes using frequency analysis with FFTs and with an equivalent technique known as Goertzel\'s algorithm. In these applications, the emphasis of this paper is to propose tools to geneticists and molecular biologists for the prediction or identification of new genes using existing complementary strategies. The criteria for these tools are speed, reliability, accuracy and ease of use, thus requiring little training.\n[/accordion_item]\n[accordion_item title=\"Pathology Advances with GPUs | Northeastern University\" ]\n\nAuthors: Laboratory for Spectral Diagnosis at Northeastern University\nSpeedup: 100X+\n\nOne element of the hyperspectral image analysis workflow that requires more than a traditional desktop workstation or personal computer is Hierarchical Cluster analysis (HCA). HCA requires a large amount of data space and substantial computation time (~11 hours) for typical datasets using a single processor personal computer.

As a result, many imaging algorithms apply FFT-based approximations. While efficient, these algorithms sacrifice data fidelity for speed. Other algorithms better preserve information, but are often too slow for many applications. At System Planning Corporation (SPC) , we have implemented a SAR/ISAR imaging routine based on the Backprojection algorithm. Using ArrayFire software, we have demonstrated speedups of roughly 45x for large datasets.[/accordion_item]\r\n\r\n[accordion_item title=\"Radar Clutter Reduction | System Planning Corporation\"]\r\n\r\nAuthors: David Berger and Gary Rubin - System Planning Corporation\r\nSpeedup: 5-10X\r\n\r\nSystem Planning Corporation (SPC) uses ArrayFire software to accelerate radar processing algorithms. The system processes raw data from marine navigation radars using a variety of thresholding techniques to extract real targets from clutter. This involves highly data-parallel processing in which each radar pulse is subjected to the same computations; very few operations occur across multiple pulses.

For most people, tsunamis are underrated as major hazards. People sometimes wrongly believe that they occur infrequently and only along distant coasts. Tsunamis are usually caused by earthquakes. Seismic signals can give some margin of warning since the speed of tsunami waves travels at 1/30 the speed of seismic waves. Still there is little time between the creation of the tsunami and its impact making fast processing critical to producing effective warning systems. ArrayFire software was used to run an RBF simulation on the GPU with a time to solution not available by other alternatives.\r\n[/accordion_item][/accordion]\r\n<h5>Life Sciences</h5>\r\n[accordion][accordion_item title=\"Parallelized Gene Predictors | University of Quebec\" ]\r\n\r\nAuthors: University of Quebec\r\nSpeedup: 43X\r\n\r\nComputerized approaches to studying the human genome are challenged by the exploding amount of data, which doubles roughly every 6 months. In order to deal with this burgeoning datasets, demands for faster processing power continue to arise. This work focuses on predicting genes using frequency analysis with FFTs and with an equivalent technique known as Goertzel\'s algorithm. In these applications, the emphasis of this paper is to propose tools to geneticists and molecular biologists for the prediction or identification of new genes using existing complementary strategies. The criteria for these tools are speed, reliability, accuracy and ease of use, thus requiring little training.\r\n[/accordion_item]\r\n[accordion_item title=\"Pathology Advances with GPUs | Northeastern University\" ]\r\n\r\nAuthors: Laboratory for Spectral Diagnosis at Northeastern University\r\nSpeedup: 100X+\r\n\r\nOne element of the hyperspectral image analysis workflow that requires more than a traditional desktop workstation or personal computer is Hierarchical Cluster analysis (HCA). HCA requires a large amount of data space and substantial computation time (~11 hours) for typical datasets using a single processor personal computer. Rather than following the traditional approach of moving to a lower level programming language like C or C++ and complex parallel programming paradigms such as OpenMP or the Massage Passing Interface (MPI), the lab utilized graphics processing units, or GPUs, and the ArrayFire software platform. The solution allowed the lab to dramatically increase the performance of the analysis while substantially decreasing the amount of calendar time to reach the desired results.\r\n[/accordion_item]\r\n[accordion_item title=\"Hepatitis C Virus - Mutation Modeling | Centers for Disease Control and Prevention\" ]\r\n\r\nAuthors: CDC Research and Development Team\r\nSpeedup: ~20X\r\n\r\nThis case study provides a look at biological research regarding coordinated mutations of the Hepatitis C Virus (HCV).

As a result, many imaging algorithms apply FFT-based approximations. While efficient, these algorithms sacrifice data fidelity for speed. Other algorithms better preserve information, but are often too slow for many applications. At System Planning Corporation (SPC) , we have implemented a SAR/ISAR imaging routine based on the Backprojection algorithm. Using ArrayFire software, we have demonstrated speedups of roughly 45x for large datasets.[/accordion_item]\r\n\r\n[accordion_item title=\"Radar Clutter Reduction | System Planning Corporation\"]\r\n\r\nAuthors: David Berger and Gary Rubin - System Planning Corporation\r\nSpeedup: 5-10X\r\n\r\nSystem Planning Corporation (SPC) uses ArrayFire software to accelerate radar processing algorithms. The system processes raw data from marine navigation radars using a variety of thresholding techniques to extract real targets from clutter. This involves highly data-parallel processing in which each radar pulse is subjected to the same computations; very few operations occur across multiple pulses.

For most people, tsunamis are underrated as major hazards. People sometimes wrongly believe that they occur infrequently and only along distant coasts. Tsunamis are usually caused by earthquakes. Seismic signals can give some margin of warning since the speed of tsunami waves travels at 1/30 the speed of seismic waves. Still there is little time between the creation of the tsunami and its impact making fast processing critical to producing effective warning systems. ArrayFire software was used to run an RBF simulation on the GPU with a time to solution not available by other alternatives.\r\n[/accordion_item][/accordion]\r\n<h5>Life Sciences</h5>\r\n[accordion][accordion_item title=\"Parallelized Gene Predictors | University of Quebec\" ]\r\n\r\nAuthors: University of Quebec\r\nSpeedup: 43X\r\n\r\nComputerized approaches to studying the human genome are challenged by the exploding amount of data, which doubles roughly every 6 months. In order to deal with this burgeoning datasets, demands for faster processing power continue to arise. This work focuses on predicting genes using frequency analysis with FFTs and with an equivalent technique known as Goertzel\'s algorithm. In these applications, the emphasis of this paper is to propose tools to geneticists and molecular biologists for the prediction or identification of new genes using existing complementary strategies. The criteria for these tools are speed, reliability, accuracy and ease of use, thus requiring little training.\r\n[/accordion_item]\r\n[accordion_item title=\"Pathology Advances with GPUs | Northeastern University\" ]\r\n\r\nAuthors: Laboratory for Spectral Diagnosis at Northeastern University\r\nSpeedup: 100X+\r\n\r\nOne element of the hyperspectral image analysis workflow that requires more than a traditional desktop workstation or personal computer is Hierarchical Cluster analysis (HCA). HCA requires a large amount of data space and substantial computation time (~11 hours) for typical datasets using a single processor personal computer. Rather than following the traditional approach of moving to a lower level programming language like C or C++ and complex parallel programming paradigms such as OpenMP or the Massage Passing Interface (MPI), the lab utilized graphics processing units, or GPUs, and the ArrayFire software platform. The solution allowed the lab to dramatically increase the performance of the analysis while substantially decreasing the amount of calendar time to reach the desired results.\r\n[/accordion_item]\r\n[accordion_item title=\"Hepatitis C Virus - Mutation Modeling | Centers for Disease Control and Prevention\" ]\r\n\r\nAuthors: CDC Research and Development Team\r\nSpeedup: ~20X\r\n\r\nThis case study provides a look at biological research regarding coordinated mutations of the Hepatitis C Virus (HCV).

As a result, many imaging algorithms apply FFT-based approximations. While efficient, these algorithms sacrifice data fidelity for speed. Other algorithms better preserve information, but are often too slow for many applications. At System Planning Corporation (SPC) , we have implemented a SAR/ISAR imaging routine based on the Backprojection algorithm. Using ArrayFire software, we have demonstrated speedups of roughly 45x for large datasets.[/accordion_item]\r\n\r\n[accordion_item title=\"Radar Clutter Reduction | System Planning Corporation\"]\r\n\r\nAuthors: David Berger and Gary Rubin - System Planning Corporation\r\nSpeedup: 5-10X\r\n\r\nSystem Planning Corporation (SPC) uses ArrayFire software to accelerate radar processing algorithms. The system processes raw data from marine navigation radars using a variety of thresholding techniques to extract real targets from clutter. This involves highly data-parallel processing in which each radar pulse is subjected to the same computations; very few operations occur across multiple pulses.

For most people, tsunamis are underrated as major hazards. People sometimes wrongly believe that they occur infrequently and only along distant coasts. Tsunamis are usually caused by earthquakes. Seismic signals can give some margin of warning since the speed of tsunami waves travels at 1/30 the speed of seismic waves. Still there is little time between the creation of the tsunami and its impact making fast processing critical to producing effective warning systems. ArrayFire software was used to run an RBF simulation on the GPU with a time to solution not available by other alternatives.\r\n[/accordion_item][/accordion]\r\n<h5>Life Sciences</h5>\r\n[accordion][accordion_item title=\"Parallelized Gene Predictors | University of Quebec\" ]\r\n\r\nAuthors: University of Quebec\r\nSpeedup: 43X\r\n\r\nComputerized approaches to studying the human genome are challenged by the exploding amount of data, which doubles roughly every 6 months. In order to deal with this burgeoning datasets, demands for faster processing power continue to arise. This work focuses on predicting genes using frequency analysis with FFTs and with an equivalent technique known as Goertzel\'s algorithm. In these applications, the emphasis of this paper is to propose tools to geneticists and molecular biologists for the prediction or identification of new genes using existing complementary strategies. The criteria for these tools are speed, reliability, accuracy and ease of use, thus requiring little training.\r\n[/accordion_item]\r\n[accordion_item title=\"Pathology Advances with GPUs | Northeastern University\" ]\r\n\r\nAuthors: Laboratory for Spectral Diagnosis at Northeastern University\r\nSpeedup: 100X+\r\n\r\nOne element of the hyperspectral image analysis workflow that requires more than a traditional desktop workstation or personal computer is Hierarchical Cluster analysis (HCA). HCA requires a large amount of data space and substantial computation time (~11 hours) for typical datasets using a single processor personal computer. Rather than following the traditional approach of moving to a lower level programming language like C or C++ and complex parallel programming paradigms such as OpenMP or the Massage Passing Interface (MPI), the lab utilized graphics processing units, or GPUs, and the ArrayFire software platform. The solution allowed the lab to dramatically increase the performance of the analysis while substantially decreasing the amount of calendar time to reach the desired results.\r\n[/accordion_item]\r\n[accordion_item title=\"Hepatitis C Virus - Mutation Modeling | Centers for Disease Control and Prevention\" ]\r\n\r\nAuthors: CDC Research and Development Team\r\nSpeedup: ~20X\r\n\r\nThis case study provides a look at biological research regarding coordinated mutations of the Hepatitis C Virus (HCV).

As a result, many imaging algorithms apply FFT-based approximations. While efficient, these algorithms sacrifice data fidelity for speed. Other algorithms better preserve information, but are often too slow for many applications. At System Planning Corporation (SPC) , we have implemented a SAR/ISAR imaging routine based on the Backprojection algorithm. Using ArrayFire software, we have demonstrated speedups of roughly 45x for large datasets.[/accordion_item]\r\n\r\n[accordion_item title=\"Radar Clutter Reduction | System Planning Corporation\"]\r\n\r\nAuthors: David Berger and Gary Rubin - System Planning Corporation\r\nSpeedup: 5-10X\r\n\r\nSystem Planning Corporation (SPC) uses ArrayFire software to accelerate radar processing algorithms. The system processes raw data from marine navigation radars using a variety of thresholding techniques to extract real targets from clutter. This involves highly data-parallel processing in which each radar pulse is subjected to the same computations; very few operations occur across multiple pulses. Using ArrayFire software, SPC has achieved 10x speed improvements relative to a Core i7-920 CPU and 5x improvements relative to a realtime DSP implementation.[/accordion_item]\r\n\r\n[accordion_item title=\"Novel Algorithms for Linear Algebra | SAIC\" ]\r\n\r\nAuthors: Nolan Davis and Daniel Redig, SAIC\r\nSpeedup: 3.5X\r\n\r\nNolan Davis and Daniel Redig at SAIC recently presented work on Hybrid GPU/Multicore Solutions for Large Linear Algebra Problems where they developed a novel algorithm for LU decomposition, one of the most important routines in linear algebra.

For most people, tsunamis are underrated as major hazards. People sometimes wrongly believe that they occur infrequently and only along distant coasts. Tsunamis are usually caused by earthquakes. Seismic signals can give some margin of warning since the speed of tsunami waves travels at 1/30 the speed of seismic waves. Still there is little time between the creation of the tsunami and its impact making fast processing critical to producing effective warning systems. ArrayFire software was used to run an RBF simulation on the GPU with a time to solution not available by other alternatives.\r\n[/accordion_item][/accordion]\r\n<h5>Life Sciences</h5>\r\n[accordion][accordion_item title=\"Parallelized Gene Predictors | University of Quebec\" ]\r\n\r\nAuthors: University of Quebec\r\nSpeedup: 43X\r\n\r\nComputerized approaches to studying the human genome are challenged by the exploding amount of data, which doubles roughly every 6 months. In order to deal with this burgeoning datasets, demands for faster processing power continue to arise. This work focuses on predicting genes using frequency analysis with FFTs and with an equivalent technique known as Goertzel\'s algorithm. In these applications, the emphasis of this paper is to propose tools to geneticists and molecular biologists for the prediction or identification of new genes using existing complementary strategies. The criteria for these tools are speed, reliability, accuracy and ease of use, thus requiring little training.\r\n[/accordion_item]\r\n[accordion_item title=\"Pathology Advances with GPUs | Northeastern University\" ]\r\n\r\nAuthors: Laboratory for Spectral Diagnosis at Northeastern University\r\nSpeedup: 100X+\r\n\r\nOne element of the hyperspectral image analysis workflow that requires more than a traditional desktop workstation or personal computer is Hierarchical Cluster analysis (HCA). HCA requires a large amount of data space and substantial computation time (~11 hours) for typical datasets using a single processor personal computer. Rather than following the traditional approach of moving to a lower level programming language like C or C++ and complex parallel programming paradigms such as OpenMP or the Massage Passing Interface (MPI), the lab utilized graphics processing units, or GPUs, and the ArrayFire software platform. The solution allowed the lab to dramatically increase the performance of the analysis while substantially decreasing the amount of calendar time to reach the desired results.\r\n[/accordion_item]\r\n[accordion_item title=\"Hepatitis C Virus - Mutation Modeling | Centers for Disease Control and Prevention\" ]\r\n\r\nAuthors: CDC Research and Development Team\r\nSpeedup: ~20X\r\n\r\nThis case study provides a look at biological research regarding coordinated mutations of the Hepatitis C Virus (HCV).

However, there were very few applications using the capability because, with time, GPU memory has become reasonably large. The only applications using zero copy access were mainly ones with extremely large memory requirements, such as database processing.\r\n\r\nZero Copy is a way to map host memory and access it directly over PCIe without doing an explicit memory transfer. It allows CUDA kernels to directly access host memory. Instead of reading data from global memory (limit ~200GB/s), data would be read over PCIe and be limited by PCIe bandwidth (upto 16GB/s). Hence there was no real performance advantage for most applications.\r\n\r\nHowever, with the release of the <a href=\"https://developer.nvidia.com/jetson-tk1\" title=\"Jetson TK1\" target=\"_blank\">Jetson TK1</a> board with the <a href=\"http://www.nvidia.com/object/tegra-k1-processor.html\" title=\"Tegra K1\" target=\"_blank\">Tegra K1</a> processor, this has become really useful. The Jetson board has 2GB of physical memory that is shared by the ARM CPU and the CUDA GPU. If a cudaMemcpy Host->Device is done on the Jetson, the memory is simply being copied to a new location on the same physical memory and retrieving a CUDA pointer from it. In such a scenario, Zero Copy access is perfect.\r\n\r\n<h3>Standard CUDA Pipeline</h3>\r\nLets take a look at a standard pipeline in CUDA.\r\n\r\n<pre>\r\n// Host Arrays\r\nfloat* h_in  = new float[sizeIn];\r\nfloat* h_out = new float[sizeOut];\r\n\r\n//Process h_in\r\n\r\n// Device arrays\r\nfloat *d_out, *d_in;\r\n\r\n// Allocate memory on the device\r\ncudaMalloc((void **) &d_in,  sizeIn ));\r\ncudaMalloc((void **) &d_out, sizeOut));\r\n\r\n// Copy array contents of input from the host (CPU) to the device (GPU)\r\ncudaMemcpy(d_in, h_in, sizeX * sizeY * sizeof(float), cudaMemcpyHostToDevice);\r\n\r\n// Launch the GPU kernel\r\nkernel<<<blocks, threads>>>(d_out, d_in);\r\n\r\n// Copy result back\r\ncudaMemcpy(h_out, d_out, sizeOut, cudaMemcpyDeviceToHost);\r\n\r\n// Continue processing on host using h_out\r\n\r\n</pre>\r\n\r\n<h3>Zero Copy Access CUDA Pipeline</h3>\r\nNow lets look at a pipeline using Zero Copy access.\r\n\r\n<pre>\r\n// Set flag to enable zero copy access\r\ncudaSetDeviceFlags(cudaDeviceMapHost);\r\n\r\n// Host Arrays\r\nfloat* h_in  = NULL;\r\nfloat* h_out = NULL;\r\n\r\n// Process h_in\r\n\r\n// Allocate host memory using CUDA allocation calls\r\ncudaHostAlloc((void **)&h_in,  sizeIn,  cudaHostAllocMapped);\r\ncudaHostAlloc((void **)&h_out, sizeOut, cudaHostAllocMapped);\r\n\r\n// Device arrays\r\nfloat *d_out, *d_in;\r\n// Get device pointer from host memory. No allocation or memcpy\r\ncudaHostGetDevicePointer((void **)&d_in,  (void *) h_in , 0);\r\ncudaHostGetDevicePointer((void **)&d_out, (void *) h_out, 0);\r\n\r\n// Launch the GPU kernel\r\nkernel<<<blocks, threads>>>(d_out, d_in);\r\n\r\n// No need to copy d_out back\r\n// Continue processing on host using h_out\r\n</pre>\r\n\r\nAs you can see, it is considerably simpler to use zero copy access on the Tegra from a coding perspective. The kernel code remains the same. You can also allocate host memory using the cudaHostAlloc call without using zero copy access. This allows the fast pinned memory transfer when doing a cudaMemcpy.\r\n\r\n<h3>Results</h3>\r\nSo how does it perform?\r\n\r\nWhen I ran a transpose kernel using zero copy vs using standard pipeline, I achieve a the following results for a 4096 x 4096 matrix. \r\n\r\n<table style=\"width:50%\">\r\n  <th>\r\n    <td>Pipeline</td>\r\n    <td>Bandwidth (GB/s)</td> \r\n    <td>Time (ms)</td>\r\n  </th>  \r\n  <tr>\r\n    <td></td>\r\n    <td>Standard Pipeline</td>\r\n    <td>3.0</td> \r\n    <td>45</td>\r\n  </tr>\r\n  <tr>\r\n    <td></td>\r\n    <td>Zero Copy Pipeline</td>\r\n    <td>5.8</td> \r\n    <td>23</td>\r\n  </tr>\r\n</table>\r\n\r\nThe bandwidth of a device-to-device copy kernel on the Tegra is ~6.6 GB/s.\r\n\r\nThe results are tremendous. Any result, that is as good as or better than the standard pipeline is worth doing using zero copy. This saves memory usage as it does not require duplication on host and device.\r\n\r\nThere a a few caveats though. If you are running multiple kernels without modifying the data on the host side, it may be wise to run the standard pipeline. There is no right answer. Since it is so simple to modify the code for memory transfer vs zero copy pointers, it would be best to run both techniques and benchmark them.\r\n\r\n<h3>Applications</h3>\r\nWe these results, we believe the Tegra K1 is a great option for streaming applications. Most streaming applications run image or signal processing algorithms, with a limitation of running at either 60 or 30 frames per second. On desktops, although the kernels themselves run well under the required time, the memory transfer times form a significant portion.\r\n\r\nThis is why the Tegra K1 can be great. We save 100% of the memory transfer times used by discrete GPUs by using Zero Copy access. This allow the Tegra K1 GPU to do the streaming operations within the performance constraints even though is is considerable under-powered compared to most desktop GPUs.\r\n\r\nOf course, streaming is not the only application. There are many more, and if do happen to try one or want to try your application on the K1, we would be extremely excited to hear about it.\r\n\r\n<h3>Code</h3>\r\nYou can find the entire code from my transpose exercise here: <a href=\"http://sandbox.arrayfire.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/transpose.zip\">transpose</a>.\r\nNote: If you wish to run this on a x86 system, make sure you change the compute version in the makefile from 32 to 30 (for Kepler).','Zero Copy on Tegra K1','','publish','open','open','','zero-copy-on-tegra-k1','','','2014-10-07 15:00:46','2014-10-07 15:00:46','',0,'http://sandbox.arrayfire.com/?p=6757',0,'post','',8),(6759,11,'2014-10-02 22:07:12','2014-10-02 22:07:12','Zero Copy memory was introduced in CUDA quite a while back (~2009).

However, there were very few takers for the capability because with time GPU memory has become reasonably large. The only takers were mainly folks with extremely large memory requirements, such as database processing.\r\n\r\nZero Copy memory is a way to map host memory and access it directly over PCIe without doing an explicit memory transfer. It is a way to allow CUDA kernels to directly access host memory. So instead of reading data from global memory (limit ~200GB/s), data would be read over PCIe and be limited by PCIe bandwidth (upto 16GB/s). Hence there was no real advantage.\r\n\r\nHowever, with the release of the Jetson TK1 which uses the Tegra K1 processor, this has become really useful. The Jetson board has 2GB of physical memory that is shared by host and the CUDA GPU. If a cudaMemcpy Host->Device is done on the Jetson, the memory is simply being copied to a new location on the same physical memory and retrieving a CUDA pointer from it.In such a scenario, Zero Copy memory is perfect.\r\n\r\n<h3>Standard CUDA Pipeline</h3>\r\nLets take a look at a standard pipeline in CUDA:\r\n\r\n<pre>\r\n// Host Arrays\r\nfloat* h_in  = new float[sizeIn];\r\nfloat* h_out = new float[sizeOut];\r\n\r\n//Process h_in\r\n\r\n// Device arrays\r\nfloat *d_out, *d_in;\r\n\r\n// Allocate memory on the device\r\ncudaMalloc((void **) &d_in,  sizeIn ));\r\ncudaMalloc((void **) &d_out, sizeOut));\r\n\r\n// Copy array contents of input from the host (CPU) to the device (GPU)\r\ncudaMemcpy(d_in, h_in, sizeX * sizeY * sizeof(float), cudaMemcpyHostToDevice);\r\n\r\n// Launch the GPU kernel\r\nkernel<<<blocks, threads>>>(d_out, d_in);\r\n\r\n// Copy result back\r\ncudaMemcpy(h_out, d_out, sizeOut, cudaMemcpyDeviceToHost);\r\n\r\n// Continue processing on host using h_out\r\n\r\n</pre>\r\n\r\n<h3>Zero Copy Memory CUDA Pipeline</h3>\r\nNow lets look at a pipeline using Zero Copy memory\r\n\r\n<pre>\r\n// Set flag to enable zero copy memory\r\ncudaSetDeviceFlags(cudaDeviceMapHost);\r\n\r\n// Host Arrays\r\nfloat* h_in  = NULL;\r\nfloat* h_out = NULL;\r\n\r\n// Process h_in\r\n\r\n// Allocate host memory using CUDA allocation calls\r\ncudaHostAlloc((void **)&h_in,  sizeIn,  cudaHostAllocMapped);\r\ncudaHostAlloc((void **)&h_out, sizeOut, cudaHostAllocMapped);\r\n\r\n// Device arrays\r\nfloat *d_out, *d_in;\r\n// Get device pointer from host memory.
