Public award description
THE GOAL OF THIS PROJECT IS TO INVESTIGATE THE BENEFIT OF USING GPUS FOR MODELING BIRD MIGRATION PROBLEMS. IN THESE SIMULATIONS, THE DYNAMICS OF A LARGE POPULATION OF INDIVIDUAL PARTICLES (BIRDS) UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF EXTERNAL FORCES IS MODELED. THE LARGE NUMBER OF INDEPENDENT FLOATING POINT OPERATIONS INVOLVED IN THESE COMPUTATIONS MAKES THEM GOOD CANDIDATES TO BENEFIT FROM COST-EFFECTIVE ACCELERATION VIA GRAPHICS PROCESSING UNITS (GPUS). TECK-X WILL PERFORM THE FOLLOWING TASKS: TASK 1 DEVELOP BIRD MIGRATION MODELING UTILITIES ON THE GPU USING GPULIB/CUDA AND EVALUATE THE PERFORMANCE. TASK 2 IMPLEMENT THE UTILITIES WITH MATLAB AND JAVA USING GPULIB/CUDA. TASK 3 INSTALLATION OF THESE MODELS AND CUSTOMER SUPPORT.
