In this paper we propose the parallelization of Ehrlich-Aberth method using two parallel programming paradigms OpenMP and MPI on CUDA multi-GPU platforms. Our CUDA/MPI and CUDA/OpenMP codes are the first implementations of Ehrlich-Aberth method with multiple GPUs for finding roots of polynomials. Our major contributions include:
\LZK{Pourquoi la méthode Ehrlich-Aberth et pas autres? the Ehrlich-Aberth have very good convergence and it is suitable to be implemented in parallel computers.}
\begin{itemize}
- \item An improvements for the Ehrlich-Aberth method using the exponential logarithm in order to be able to solve sparse and full polynomial of degree up to 1, 000, 000.
- \item A parallel implementation of Ehrlich-Aberth method on single GPU with CUDA.

+ \item A parallel implementation of Ehrlich-Aberth method on single GPU with CUDA.\RC{idem}
\item The parallel implementation of Ehrlich-Aberth algorithm on a multi-GPU platform with a shared memory using OpenMP API. It is based on threads created from the same system process, such that each thread is attached to one GPU. In this case the communications between GPUs are done by OpenMP threads through shared memory.
\item The parallel implementation of Ehrlich-Aberth algorithm on a multi-GPU platform with a distributed memory using MPI API, such that each GPU is attached and managed by a MPI process. The GPUs exchange their data by message-passing communications. This latter approach is more used on clusters to solve very complex problems that are too large for traditional supercomputers, which are very expensive to build and run.

-With high degree polynomial, the Ehrlich-Aberth method suffer from overflow because the limited number in the mantissa of floating points representations, which makes the computation of $p(z)$ wrong when z is large.

In order to evaluate both the M-GPU and Multi-GPU approaches, we performed a set of experiments on a single GPU and multiple GPUs using OpenMP or MPI by EA algorithm, for both sparse and full polynomials of different sizes.
All experimental results obtained are made in double precision data whereas the convergence threshold of the EA method is set to $10^{-7}$.

-Figure~\ref{fig:02} shows execution time of EA algorithm, for a single GPU, and multiple GPUs (2, 3, 4) on respectively 2, 3 and four MPI nodes. We can clearly see that the curve for a single GPU is above the other curves, which shows overtime in execution time compared to the Multi-GPU approach. We can see also that the CUDA-MPI approach reduces the execution time by a factor of 10 for polynomials of degree more than 1,000,000. For example, at degree 1000000, the execution time with a single GPU amounted to 10 thousand seconds, while with 4 GPUs, it is lowered to about just one thousand seconds which makes it for a tenfold speedup.

-In Figure~\ref{fig:05} there two curves for each polynomial size : one for the MPI-CUDA and another for the OpenMP. We can see that the results are similar between OpenMP and MPI for the polynomials size of 200K. For the size of 800K, the MPI version is a little slower than the OpenMP approach but for for the 1,4M size, there is a slight advantage for the MPI version.
