Abstract

In this paper we present how recent hardware revisions and newly introduced approaches to thread collaboration in NVIDIA GPUs and the CUDA toolkit can be used to design an extensible, scalable GPU-based solver for the N-Queens problem. We discuss various design choices ranging from memory structure,...
