While working on the project, we discovered that cudaMemcpy(HtoD) and (DtoH) takes long time.​
so, we decided to use pinned memory instead of pageable memory​ cudaHostAlloc();​to improve its performance.
"cudaHostAlloc() will allocate pinned memory which is always stored in RAM and can be accessed by GPU's DMA(direct memory access) directly"
