Introduction

This image processing program was found on github. It processes and manipulates images using convolutions matrices (kernels). It has several different functions including aligning and sharpening images.

To convolve an image the kernel is applied to each pixel. Using the kernel, the pixel's value is combined with that of its neighbors to create a new pixel value. This program implements the filter using two loops to loop over each pixel in sequence. For a given an image convolution is an O(rows x columns) function. As blurring operation on each pixel is independent of the others, therefore it is a perfect candidate for parallelization.

To profile the application, I created a large bitmap file (about 800 x 800, 2MB) and ran it through three different operations. To conserve space, I have not included a profile of all of the available operations.

Summary

The functions that perform the filtering are Gauss_filter::smooth_ord, unsharp and Use_kernel::new_im(). These functions are all O(r x c) with respect to image dimensions and thus where the biggest gains from parallelization will be found.

Introduction

The SHA-1 algorithm used in this project was implemented by Paul E. Jones[1]. It is a C++ version of the algorithm. The recursive permutation algorithm was taken from a user submission[2] on stack exchange.

[1]http://www.packetizer.com/security/sha1/

[2] http://codereview.stackexchange.com/questions/38474/brute-force-algorithm-in-c

After some tweaking to integrate the two to work in conjunction, I ran the program using the Upper and lower case alphabet for the permutation, with a length of 5, as input. The length and character set are hard coded.

Length of 5, upper and lowercase

Summary

The total runtime for this test was approximately 132 seconds. Using Amdahl's law to calculate the speed up I would obtain on my laptop, the equation is:

     S384 = 1 / ((1 - 0.8338) + (0.8338/384)) = 5.9393
     

The maximum expected speed is 5.9393. My laptop’s 650M GPU only has 384 cores. This is not a significant increase in speed.

Using my desktop’s GTX780 has 2304 core. Using my desktop’s gpu the resulting speed up would be:

     S2304 = 1 / ((1 - 0.8338) + (0.8338/2304)) = 6.004

After observing these results, and further analysis of the algorithm, I have found that the SHA-1 algorithm is a sequential algorithm not entirely suitable for parallelisation.

Due to this, I choose Ben's image processing for parallelisation.

Introduction

My Project used a Heat Equation calculator.

Source: https://github.com/MyCodes/Heat-Equation

After some changes to the Makefile to work with the profiler and testing several different parameters for the calculations I have come up with the following results:

Explicit from -15 to +15

Summary

As you can see the std::vector<double, std::allocator<double> >::operator[](unsigned long) function is where 8.7 % of the time is spent and thus this is where the program would most benefit from parallelisation.
