Abstract
In China, fast city rebuilding poses the challenge of frequent refresh cycle of urban traffic noise mapping. Computational complexity and lack of resources are the primary bottleneck in traffic noise mapping. In this paper, we present a flexible distributed heterogeneous computing method based on GPU-CPU cooperation, which reduces the overhead, improves the efficiency of parallel computing and consistently generates good quality results for traffic noise mapping. A genetic algorithm based large-scale task partition algorithm is employed to solve load balancing problem in distributed noise mapping calculation. The methodology is evaluated by an example, whose results show that the proposed task partition method can significantly improve running efficiency. Parallel efficiency increases from 54% to 78%. In addition, test speed is further improved by 21% with the GPU-CPU collaborative computing, even with only low-end type GPUs.
