NUDFT-III

Non Uniform Discrete Fourier Transform applied to OGLE-III Type 1 Cepheid photometry database.

Usage

(linux)

$ export JULIA_NUM_THREADS=$(nprocs)

$julia -p auto Main.jl n

where n is the desired number of stars

Results

Output file results.dat. 5 columns: star id, execution time, period, ephemeris and period quality factor (a.k.a. |F(T)|^2 on period T). Can be loaded on Julia with read_float_table from FileOperations.jl.

Benchmark

With n=1840 on Intel Core i3 (quad core) legacy generation, Windows and Julia v1.1, CPU time was 473.475s and elapsed (calculation and output) time was 143.372s giving 330.2% of time improvement.
