  • Publication number: 20170153920
    Abstract: Graphics processing units (CPUs) deployed in general purpose GPU (GPGPU) units are combined into a GPGPU cluster. Access to the remote GPGPU cluster is then offered as a service to users who can use their own computers to communicate with the GPGPU cluster. The users' computers can be standalone desktop systems, laptops, or even another GPGPU cluster. The user can run a parallelized application locally and patiently wait for results or can dynamically recruit the remote GPGPU cluster to obtain those results more quickly. Dynamic recruitment means that the users can add remote GPGPU resources to a running application.

  • Publication number: 20150042665
    Abstract: Graphics processing units (GPUs) deployed in general purpose GPU (GPGPU) units are combined into a GPGPU cluster. Access to the GPGPU cluster is then offered as a service to users who can use their own computers to communicate with the GPGPU cluster. The users develop applications to be run on the cluster and a profiling module tracks the applications' resource utilization and can report it to the user and to a subscription server. The user can examine the report to thereby optimize the application or the cluster's configuration. The subscription server can interpret the report to thereby invoice the user or otherwise govern the users' access to the cluster.
