In the recent years, computing is shifting from "central processing" on the CPU to "co-processing" on the CPU and GPU. This computing paradigm shift is due to the development of CUDA (Compute Unified Device Architecture) parallel computing architecture. CUDA is a programming model for parallel computing in Graphics Processing Units (GPUs). In this work, we have implemented parallel solution of the NP-complete modified subset sum algorithm using CUDA. With our implementation, for a certain problem size, we have obtained speedup of 20 times, compared to the CPU version.
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.
