Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Clusters with GPUs become widespread because they provide high peak performance and good performance per cost. However, since the number of plugged GPUs into a CPU is limited by power supply and so on, such clusters must have multiple host PCs. This conventional multi-GPU cluster requires programmers to learn parallel programming skills for controlling communication between nodes as well as GPU programming. We propose new multi-GPU system, single host and multiple GPUs connected via Ethernet by using ExpEther. Compared with a single GPU, our proposed system with eight GPUs achieved 7.13 speedup in the application without communication between devices, 3.74 speedup in the application has communication.
