\subsection{Vector $z^{(0)}$ Initialization}
-
+\label{sec:vec_initialization}
As for any iterative method, we need to choose $n$ initial guess points $z^{(0)}_{i}, i = 1, . . . , n.$
The initial guess is very important since the number of steps needed by the iterative method to reach
a given approximation strongly depends on it.
It can be noticed that this equation is equivalent to Eq.~\ref{Eq:EA},
but we prefer the latter one because we can use it to improve the
Ehrlich-Aberth method and find the roots of very high degrees polynomials. More
-details are given in Section ~\ref{sec2}.
+details are given in Section~\ref{sec2}.
\subsection{Convergence Condition}
The convergence condition determines the termination of the algorithm. It consists in stopping the iterative function when the roots are sufficiently stable. We consider that the method converges sufficiently when:
%to $1,000,000$).
-\section {A CUDA parallel Ehrlich-Aberth method}
-In the following, we describe the parallel implementation of Ehrlich-Aberth method on GPU
-for solving high degree polynomials (up to $1,000,000$). First, the hardware and software of the GPUs are presented. Then, the CUDA parallel Ehrlich-Aberth method is presented.
-
-\subsection{Background on the GPU architecture}
-A GPU is viewed as an accelerator for the data-parallel and
-intensive arithmetic computations. It draws its computing power
-from the parallel nature of its hardware and software
-architectures. A GPU is composed of hundreds of Streaming
-Processors (SPs) organized in several blocks called Streaming
-Multiprocessors (SMs). It also has a memory hierarchy. It has a
-private read-write local memory per SP, fast shared memory and
-read-only constant and texture caches per SM and a read-write
-global memory shared by all its SPs~\cite{NVIDIA10}.
-
-On a CPU equipped with a GPU, all the data-parallel and intensive
-functions of an application running on the CPU are off-loaded onto
-the GPU in order to accelerate their computations. A similar
-data-parallel function is executed on a GPU as a kernel by
-thousands or even millions of parallel threads, grouped together
-as a grid of thread blocks. Therefore, each SM of the GPU executes
-one or more thread blocks in SIMD fashion (Single Instruction,
-Multiple Data) and in turn each SP of a GPU SM runs one or more
-threads within a block in SIMT fashion (Single Instruction,
-Multiple threads). Indeed at any given clock cycle, the threads
-execute the same instruction of a kernel, but each of them
-operates on different data.
- GPUs only work on data filled in their
-global memories and the final results of their kernel executions
-must be communicated to their CPUs. Hence, the data must be
-transferred in and out of the GPU. However, the speed of memory
-copy between the GPU and the CPU is slower than the memory
-bandwidths of the GPU memories and, thus, it dramatically affects
-the performances of GPU computations. Accordingly, it is necessary
-to limit as much as possible, data transfers between the GPU and its CPU during the
-computations.
-\subsection{Background on the CUDA Programming Model}
-
-The CUDA programming model is similar in style to a single program
-multiple-data (SPMD) software model. The GPU is viewed as a
-coprocessor that executes data-parallel kernel functions. CUDA
-provides three key abstractions, a hierarchy of thread groups,
-shared memories, and barrier synchronization. Threads have a three
-level hierarchy. A grid is a set of thread blocks that execute a
-kernel function. Each grid consists of blocks of threads. Each
-block is composed of hundreds of threads. Threads within one block
-can share data using shared memory and can be synchronized at a
-barrier. All threads within a block are executed concurrently on a
-multithreaded architecture.The programmer specifies the number of
-threads per block, and the number of blocks per grid. A thread in
-the CUDA programming language is much lighter weight than a thread
-in traditional operating systems. A thread in CUDA typically
-processes one data element at a time. The CUDA programming model
-has two shared read-write memory spaces, the shared memory space
-and the global memory space. The shared memory is local to a block
-and the global memory space is accessible by all blocks. CUDA also
-provides two read-only memory spaces, the constant space and the
-texture space, which reside in external DRAM, and are accessed via
-read-only caches.

+Using Eq.~\ref{eq:Aberth-H-GS} to update the vector solution
\textit{Z}, we expect the Gauss-Seidel iteration to converge more
quickly because, just as any Jacobi algorithm (for solving linear systems of equations), it uses the most fresh computed roots $z^{k+1}_{i}$.

+The $4^{th}$ step of the algorithm checks the convergence condition using Eq.~\ref{eq:Aberth-Conv-Cond}.
Both steps 3 and 4 use 1 thread to compute all the $n$ roots on CPU, which is very harmful for performance in case of the large degree polynomials.
After the initialisation step, all data of the root finding problem to be solved must be copied from the CPU memory to the GPU global memory, because the GPUs only access data already present in their memories. Next, all the data-parallel arithmetic operations inside the main loop \verb=(do ... while(...))= are executed as kernels by the GPU. The first kernel named \textit{save} in line 6 of Algorithm~\ref{alg2-cuda} consists in saving the vector of polynomial's root found at the previous time-step in GPU memory, in order to check the convergence of the roots after each iteration (line 8, Algorithm~\ref{alg2-cuda}).
-The second kernel executes the iterative function $H$ and updates $z^{k}$, according to Algorithm~\ref{alg3-update}. We notice that the update kernel is called in two forms, separated with the value of \emph{R} which determines the radius beyond which we apply the logarithm computation of the power of a complex.

$$R = \exp( \log(DBL\_MAX) / (2*n) )$$ where $DBL\_MAX$ stands for the maximum representable double value.

\subsection{Influence of the number of threads on the execution times of different polynomials (sparse and full)}
To optimize the performances of an algorithm on a GPU, it is necessary to maximize the use of cores GPU (maximize the number of threads executed in parallel) and to optimize the use of the various memoirs GPU. In fact, it is interesting to see the influence of the number of threads per block on the execution time of Ehrlich-Aberth algorithm.
-For that, we notice that the maximum number of threads per block for the Nvidia Tesla K40 GPU is 1024, so we varied the number of threads per block from 8 to 1024. We took into account the execution time for both sparse and full of 10 different polynomials of size 50000 and 10 different polynomials of size 500000 degrees.

+\label{sec7}
+In this paper we have presented the parallel implementation Ehrlich-Aberth method on GPU and on CPU (openMP) for the problem of finding roots polynomial. Moreover, we have improved the classical Ehrlich-Aberth method witch suffer of overflow problems, the exp.log solution applying to the iterative function to resolve high degree polynomial.
+Then, we have described the parallel implementation of the Ehrlich-Aberth algorithm on GPU.
+We have performed some experiments on Ehrlich-Aberth algorithm in CPU and GPU from the both sparse and full polynomial. These experiments lead us to conclude that the iterative methods using data-parallel operations are more efficient on the GPU than on the CPU. Moreover, the experiment showed that Ehrlich-Aberth algorithm on GPU converge from the both sparse and full polynomials with precision of $10^{-7}$ and the execution time very faster than the CPU version.
+The experiences showed that the improvement brought to Ehrlich-Aberth allows to resolve very large degree polynomial exceed 100,000.
+Finally, we have compared Ehrlich-Aberth algorithm to Durand-Kerner algorithm, we have conclude that Ehrlich-Aberth converges more quickly than Durand-Kerner in execution time, it is due in fact that Ehrlich-Aberth has cubic one convergence While Durand-Kerner is quadratic. In counterpart, the execution time per iteration are very low for Durand-Kerner algorithm compare to the Ehrlich-Aberth algorithm, consequently, it need lot of iterations to converge. We have to notice that Durand-Kerner does not converge for full polynomial which exceed 5000 degrees while Ehrlich-Aberth was able to solve full polynomial of degree 500,000.
+In future work, we plan to perform some experiments using several GPU with a cluster of GPU. So it is interesting to implement algorithms using at least two forms of parallelism on GPU and CPU.
