An Exploration of CUDA and CBEA for a Gravitational Wave Data-Analysis Application (Einstein@Home)
Jens Breitbart · The Open Astronomy Journal · 2011
We present a detailed approach for making use of two new computer hardware architectures -CBEA and CUDA -for accelerating a scientific data-analysis application (Einstein@Home).Our results suggest that both the architectures suit the application quite well and the achievable performance in the same software developmental time-frame, is nearly identical.
