[amibroker] OT: math speed increase of using GUPs (for Tomasz)

Thomasz:

I know you very forward looking -- your array processing
approach in Amibroker shows that. So you might be
interested to see how some Stanford academics are using
GPUs from ATI and nVidia to do "fuzzy" logic calculations
with protein comparisions. 

I would not be surprised to see you find a way to use the
"streaming" code of graphic chips to give Amibroker the
same outstanding speed in genetic optimization that
Amibroker now achieves with regular optimizations using
array processing.

Here is the URL for the Stanford paper: 
http://graphics.stanford.edu/papers/clawhmmer/hmmer.pdf

That article is a bit of heavy reading (specialized code
sequences for protein comparisons), but I could figure
enough out to see that the general approach reminds me a
bit of the role that "Math co-processors" used to have
years ago when CPU had limited internal math ability.

Here is a URL that gives a summary:
