ON OPENCL AND CHAOTIC PHENOMENA
Abstract
Abstract
GPGPU (General Programming on Graphics Processing Units) vastly improves over traditional methods of computation by utilizing the massive parallelism available through graphics programming units. This project aims to utilize GPGPU through the use of OpenCL (Open Computing Language), an open standard for computing on heterogeneous platforms, including CPUs, GPUs, and even embedded devices, for the computation involved in Chaotic Phenomena, and in particular, the Mandelbrot Set and the bifurcation diagram of the Logistic Map. The performance provided by the GPU through OpenCL will be compared to CPU performance through OpenCL, and a naïve serial implementation as control.
