Abstract:Java-based multi-agent simulation (MAS) can be offloaded to graphical processing units (GPU) and other OpenCL accelerators to achieve many hundredfold speedups. However, the performance gain from the accelerated code depends strongly on whether the computation (kernels) have been scheduled to the appropriate devices. Thus, accelerating Java MAS may not lead to a sustainable speedup. This paper proposes a method for a kernel classifier to specify suitable devices to execute OpenCL kernels. The classifier can id… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
