GPU Acceleration for the Murchison Widefield Array

rge21 — Mon, 14 Jun 2010 16:44:30 +0000

Our paper describing how we implemented the Real Time System (RTS) of the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) on GPUs has now been accepted by Computer Physics Communications, and is online at arxiv. GPU acceleration was key to this project, a demanding signal processing application.
