  • Abstract
    Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) offer a new way to accelerate numerical calculations by means of on-board massive parallelisation. We discuss two examples of GPU implementation relevant for cosmological simulations, an N-Body Particle-mesh solver and a radiative transfer code. The latter has also been ported on multi-GPU clusters. The range of acceleration (x30-x80) achieved here offer bright perspective for large scale simulations driven by GPUs.
