CUDA usage in electrodynamics and mechatronics

IT is a kind of science which develops fast. Nowadays the GPGPU (General Purpose Graphic Processing Unit) based technology is gaining on the importance. Few years ago, GPU was designed only to process the graphic data. The GPGPU enables computation on all kinds of data. This innovation brings computing performance huge boost. The GPGPU have been developed since year 2003. The technology was not available on the market till 2006, when the first GPGPU have been introduced by nVidia (GeForce G80). The architecture (hundreds of cores) enables parallel work together with special programs (the application adapted to GPGPU requirements), indicate huge efficiency. Computer simulations usually absorb considerable amount of computing power and last long. The unfavorable factor can be reduced by implementation of parallel data processing. Part (or the whole) data can be computed on GPGPU instead of CPU. Main aim of the paper is to point the ways of exploiting the potential of GPGPU in daily scientific work. Fundamental research base is analysis of possible usage of GPGPU in electrodynamics and mechatronics. Moreover, investigation is proved by literature research, which shows the profits like time savings and performance boost.
