Share This: 1. Overview In the previous post (here), we have analyzed the performance gain of R in the heterogeneous system by accelerators, including NVIDIA GPU and Intel Xeon Phi. Furthermore, GPU accelerated packages can greatly improve the performance of R. Figure 1 shows the download statistics of CRAN over the years. ... [Read more...]

  Objectives of Experiments R is more and more popular in various fields, including the high-performance analytics and computing (HPAC) fields. Nowadays, the architecture of HPC system can be classified as pure CPU system, CPU + Accelerators (GPGPU/FPGA) heterogeneous system, CPU + Coprocessors system. In software side, high performance scientific libraries, such ... [Read more...]
