COLLECTIVE COMMUNICATION AND BARRIER SYNCHRONIZATION ON NVIDIA CUDA GPU

GPUs (Graphics Processing Units) employ a multi-threaded execution model using multiple SIMD cores. Compared to use of a single SIMD engine, this architecture can scale to more processing elements. However, GPUs sacrifice the timing properties which made barrier synchronization implicit and collecti...
