Abstract

Recent advances in computer technology introduce massive data and their analysis becomes important. The high performance computing is one of the most essential part in analysis of massive data. In this paper, we review the general purpose of the graphics processing unit and its application to parallel computing, which has been of great interest in statistics communities.

최근 과학 기술의 빠른 발전에 따라 대용량 자료가 출현하였고 이에 대한 분석의 중요도도 높아졌다. 대용량 자료의 분석에 가장 중요한 부분중 하나가 고성능 컴퓨팅 기법이고 본 논문에서는 최근 통계학계의 많은 관심을 받고 있는 GPU (graphics processing unit)기반 병렬 계산에 대한 기초적인 소개를 한다.
