GPU samples

Parallel reduction and pointer jumping algorithms summarizing values from an array adapted to run on a GPU using Aparapi and JOCL (frontends to openCL).

building and running comparison of various sync methods in openCL parallel reduction

First, make sure that you have an openCL driver for your GPU installed: Nvidia, AMD Linux (AMD on windows should be available by default, hopefully).

./mvnw package
java -jar target/pointer-jumping-gpu-1.0-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar

This will run parallel reduction kernels using 3 different approaches to synchronization on arrays of various sizes from 32k to 128M elements, 50 times for each size. On my machine it takes about 5 minutes. For each size it will output average time for each sync method.

These are times I got on my integrated Intel GPU:
