چکیده

Traditional Agent Based Modelling (ABM) applications and frameworks lack the close coupling between the simulation behaviour and its visualisation that is required to achieve real time interactive performance with populations above a couple of thousand. The Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) offers an ideal solution to simulate and visualise the behaviour of high population ABM. The parallel nature of processing offers significant and scalable performance increases, with the added benefit of avoiding data transfer between the simulation and rendering stages. In this paper we demonstrate a framework for real-time simulation and visualisation of massive Agent Based modelling on the GPU (ABGPU).

High performance cellular level agent-based simulation with FLAME for the GPU

Driven by the availability of experimental data and ability to simulate a biological scale which is of immediate interest, the cellular scale is fast emerging as an ideal candidate for middle-out modelling. As with 'bottom-up' simulation approaches, cellular level simulations demand a high degree of computational power, which in large-scale simulations can only be achieved through parallel comp...

Ultra-Fast Image Reconstruction of Tomosynthesis Mammography Using GPU

Digital Breast Tomosynthesis (DBT) is a technology that creates three dimensional (3D) images of breast tissue. Tomosynthesis mammography detects lesions that are not detectable with other imaging systems. If image reconstruction time is in the order of seconds, we can use Tomosynthesis systems to perform Tomosynthesis-guided Interventional procedures. This research has been designed to study u...

A Parallel Fipa Architecture Based on GPU for Games and Real Time Simulations

The dynamic nature and common use of agents and agent paradigm motives the investigation on standardization of multi-agent systems (MAS). The main property of a MAS is to allow the subproblems related to a constraint satisfaction issues to be subcontracted to different problem solving agents with their own interests and goals, being FIPA one of the most commonly collection of standards used now...

Spatial Data Structures, Sorting and GPU Parallelism for Situated-agent Simulation and Visualisation

Spatial data partitioning techniques are important for obtaining fast and efficient simulations of N-Body particle and spatial agent based models where they considerably reduce redundant entity interaction computation times. Highly parallel techniques based on concurrent threading can be deployed to further speed up such simulations. We study the use of GPU accelerators and highly data parallel...

Implementation of the direction of arrival estimation algorithms by means of GPU-parallel processing in the Kuda environment (Research Article)

Direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation of audio signals is critical in different areas, including electronic war, sonar, etc. The beamforming methods like Minimum Variance Distortionless Response (MVDR), Delay-and-Sum (DAS), and subspace-based Multiple Signal Classification (MUSIC) are the most known DOA estimation techniques. The mentioned methods have high computational complexity. Hence using...
