Analysis of performance/accuracy tradeoffs for floating point applications on GPUS
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2016)Floating-point computations produce approximate results, which can lead to inaccuracy problems. Existing work addresses two issues: first, the design of high precision floatingpoint representations; second, the study of ... -
Critical analysis and evaluation of different automata processing accelerators on large-scale datasets
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2016)Many established and emerging applications perform at their core some form of pattern matching, a computation that maps naturally onto finite automata abstractions. As a consequence, in recent years there has been a ... -
Design of runtime libraries to improve programmability and efficiency of heterogeneous CPU-GPU nodes
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2016)[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] As computers began to reach their limit on how fast a single processor could execute code, computer developers began to devise methods to process more ... -
Dynamic construction of trie-based automata for approximate K-mer matching on heterogeneous CPU-GPU systems
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2016)In recent decades, mapping of a variety of species' genomes has taken place. With the proliferation of advanced and specialized hardware architectures such as GPUs, the process has been greatly accelerated. GPUs may ... -
Parallel gene upstream comparison via multi-level hash tables on GPU
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2016)The region of DNA immediately in front of a gene body (also called upstream region) contains short (8-20 base) sequence motifs that help to control when that gene is turned on and off. Unfortunately, these motifs are ...
