Enhancing Computational Performance using CPU-GPU Integration

The scope of computers has been expanding into increasing number of fields. With the growing need for computationally intense applications in every field, it is necessary to constantly meet the demands of performance requirements. The performance of the system relies heavily upon the processor and therefore the development of this technology is crucial. The processors of this age are handling growing amounts of data that depend on the speed, efficiency and data handling capacity of the processors. The scope of pushing the performance of a single processor has reached its threshold owing to factors such as cost, heat and power consumed. This lead to the advent of the age of multicore processor technology. But this model is also approaching a plateau in its scope by 2017 as predicted by Moore’s Law. It is imperativ
