| Popis | The problem of decomposing a directed graph into its strongly connected components is a fundamental graph problem inherently present in many scientific and commercial applications. In this paper we show how some of the existing parallel algorithms can be reformulated in order to be accelerated by NVIDIA CUDA technology. In particular, we design a new CUDA-aware procedure for pivot selection and we adapt the particular parallel algorithms for CUDA accelerated computation. We also experimentally demonstrate that with a single GTX 480 GPU card we can easily outperform optimal serial CPU implementation -- by an order of magnitude in most cases, 40 times on some sufficiently big instances. This is a particularly interesting result as unlike the serial CPU case, the asymptotic complexity of the parallel algorithms is not optimal. |
