Description
Summary:Possible applications of new CUDA-enabled systems-on-chip (SoCs) Tegra K1 and Tegra X1 in high-energy astrophysics are discussed in this paper. Hardware and software aspects of general purpose computing on graphics processing units (GPGPU) are briefly reviewed. An influence of space radiation effects on processors and a mitigation of its consequences are discussed.
