  • Abstract
    In this paper parallel program was performed for the FDTD electromagnetic algorithm on a multi-core CPU computer with CUDA device. In the case of two-dimension FDTD method, computation times were measured and compared to investigate the efficiency of parallel FDTD application. The results show that CUDA parallel program can improve the computing performance efficiently which can be used for three-dimension FDTD parallel applications.
