[SSS29-P06] Real-time Earthquake Information Display System
Keywords:earthquake information, GPU, parallel processing
al. 2015) and I have developed real-time earthquake information display system.
The system consists of data receiving program rcvt, data format
transformation program shmdump and wave server program.
rcvt and shmdump are part of WIN System.
wave server has wave buffer on memory and send JSON format seismic wave data,
seismic intensity data and maximum acceleration data to client at request
from web browser.
Web browser accesses to wave server per second and
display received data using JavaScript program in HTML file.
Wave server needs to process observed data over several hundreds stations
and must have high performance processing.
I tested the performance of parallel processing for high performance using GPU.
JMA seismic intensity needs Fourier transform and it is important to
speed up Fourier transform.
First, I tested performance of Fourier transform using several libraries.
Test environment consists of OS Windows 8.1(64bit version),
CPU Intel Core i7-4770K(3.5GHz, 4 cores), GPU NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760,
C compiler gcc 4.9, FFT library FFTW 3.3,
FFT library for GPU cuFFT of NVIDIA CUDA Toolkit 7.5.
Number of data is 2 to the 22nd power(4 million).
Performance of cuFFT using GPU is 10 times of its of FFTW.
Next, I tested performance of JMA seismic intensity and real-time seismic
intensity.
I used seismic data with 100Hz sampling and 5 minutes data period(number of
data is 30000).
Performance of JMA seismic intensity using FFTW is lower than real-time
seismic intensity but performance using GPU is faster than real-time
seismic intensity.
I plan to test application of GPU to multi station data using
parallel processing.
