Felisberto, P.Ey, Emanuel2014-09-182014-09-182013http://hdl.handle.net/10400.1/4990High performance underwater acoustic models are of great importance for enabling real-time acoustic source tracking, geoacoustic inversion, environmental monitoring and high-frequency underwater communications. Given the parallelizable nature of raytracing, in general, and of the ray superposition algorithm in particular, use of multiple computing units for the development of real-time e cient applications based on ray tracing is becoming of extreme importance.engUnderwater acousticsAcoustic propagation modelingHigh-performance computingOpen CLParallel computingAdaptation of an acoustic propagation model to the parallel architecture of a graphics processormaster thesis202485617
