Constructing Sierpinski Gasket Using GPUs Arrays
A fractal is a mathematical set that typically displays self-similar patterns, which means it is the same from near as from far. Fractals may be exactly the same at every scale, they may be nearly the same at different scales. The concept of fractal extends beyond trivial self-similarity and includes the idea of a detailed pattern repeating itself. The algorithms to constructing different fractal shapes in many cases typically involve large amounts of floating point computation, to which modern GPUs are well suited. In this paper we will construct Sierpinski Gasket using GPUs arrays.
Keywords: fractal, Sierpinski gasket, self-similar, GPU
