Solving Hyperbolic PDEs using Accelerator Architectures

Accelerator architectures are used to accelerate the simulation of nonlinear hyperbolic PDEs. Three different architectures, a multicore CPU using threading, IBM’s Cell Processor, and Nvidia’s Tesla GPUs are investigated. Speed-ups of between 40-75× relative to a single CPU core in single precisi...
