Abstract [eng] |
Electrical network calculations are convenient to express using matrix algebra. Traditionally calculations are performed using CPUs, modern CPUs typically have 4 to 16 threads. GPUs were originally created for use in video games, currently are used to accelerate various calculation tasks. To accomplish that APIs like CUDA (create by Nvidia) and OpenCL (originally created by Apple, currently maintained by the Khronos group). The later may be used in more devices than just GPUs. GPUs can simultaneously run many (200 or more) concurrent threads and are specialized towards floating point calculations as compared to CPU. That allows to perform calculations much faster, especially when large volumes of data need to be processed. |
