Abstract :
This paper presents a new proposal of use for GPUs in which more than one job can be executed simultaneously in a single GPU. The requirements for this are provided and a performance evaluation for such a new scenario is also presented. Finally the results of these performance measurements are analyzed and the paper is concluded with some key guidelines for getting the most of these devices under the performance point of view.
