The authors present models for estimating the time of execution of program loops compliant with the FAN model with no data dependencies or with data dependencies only within the body programming loop, which can be executed either by CPUs or by stream multiprocessors referred to as GPU cores. The models presented will make it possible to determine whether it would be more efficient to execute computation in the existing environment using the CPU (Central Pro-cessing Unit) or a state-of-the-art graphics card with a high-performance GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) and super-fast memory, of-ten implemented in modern graphics cards. Validity checks confirming the developed time estimation model for GPU are presented. The purpose of these models is to provide methods for accelerating the performance of applications performing various tasks, including transport tasks, such as accelerated solution searching, searching paths in graphs, or accelerating image processing algorithms in vision systems of autonomous and semiautonomous vehicles, where these models allow to build an automatic task distribution system between the CPU and the GPU with the variability of computing resources.
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.
