Final Year Project

This is the output from the final year of my BSc Software Engineering degree in the form of my final year project.

The aim of the project was to convert a CPU based algorithm to the GPU and compare and contrast the implimentations for pros and cons.

The project was given a First rating.

Project Status

Totally completed.

Requires

The CPU versions require a pretty fast CPU or you’ll be there for a long time on the higher resolution simulations.

GPU wise you require something recent (Nvidia Geforce 6 and up, ATI X800 and up) and the latest drivers for your graphics card.

Currently the GPU version won’t run on Vista with ATI/AMD hardware due to a lack of required extension. Problems were also reported on Nvidia cards, this was down to my development on an ATI based machine.
