Implementation and Analysis of Fractals Shapes using GPU-CUDA Model

The rapid evolution of floating-point computing capacity and memory in recent years has resulted graphics processing units (GPUs) an increasingly attractive platform to speed scientific applications and are popular rapidly due to the large amount of data that processes the data on time. Fractals have many implementations that involve faster computation and massive amounts of floating-point computation. In this paper, constructing the fractal image algorithm has been implemented both sequential and parallel versions using fractal Mandelbrot and Julia sets. CPU was used for the execution in sequential mode while GPUarray and CUDA kernel was used for the parallel mode. The evaluation of the performance of the constructed algorithms for sequential structure using CPUs (2.20 GHz and 2.60 GHz) and parallelism structure for various models of GPU (GeForce GTX 1060 and GeForce GTX 1660 Ti ) devices, calculated in terms of execution time and speedup to compare between CPU and GPU maximum ability. The results showed that the execution on GPU using GPUArray or GUDA kernel is faster than its sequential implementation using CPU. And the execution using the GUDA kernel is faster than the execution using GPUArray, and the execution time between GPU devices was different, GPU with (Ti) series execute faster than the other models.

GEOMETRIC AND EXTENSOR ALGEBRAS AND THE DIFFERENTIAL GEOMETRY OF ARBITRARY MANIFOLDS

We give in this paper which is the third in a series of four a theory of covariant derivatives of representatives of multivector and extensor fields on an arbitrary open set U ⊂ M, based on the geometric and extensor calculus on an arbitrary smooth manifold M. This is done by introducing the notion of a connection extensor field γ defining a parallelism structure on U ⊂ M, which represents in a well-defined way the action on U of the restriction there of some given connection ∇ defined on M. Also we give a novel and intrinsic presentation (i.e. one that does not depend on a chosen orthonormal moving frame) of the torsion and curvature fields of Cartan's theory. Two kinds of Cartan's connection operator fields are identified, and both appear in the intrinsic Cartan's structure equations satisfied by the Cartan's torsion and curvature extensor fields. We introduce moreover a metrical extensor g in U corresponding to the restriction there of given metric tensor g defined on M and also introduce the concept of a geometric structure(U, γ ,g) for U ⊂ M and study metric compatibility of covariant derivatives induced by the connection extensor γ. This permits the presentation of the concept of gauge (deformed) derivatives which satisfy noticeable properties useful in differential geometry and geometrical theories of the gravitational field. Several derivatives of operators in metric and geometrical structures, like ordinary and covariant Hodge co-derivatives and some duality identities are exhibited.
