Accelerating Multi GPU Based Discontinuous Galerkin FEM Computations for Electromagnetic Radio Frequency Problems摘要
A Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) accelerated simulation of Maxwell’s equations in the time domain is presented. The Discontinuous Galerkin Finite Element Method (DG-FEM) is used for discretization since the elementwise structure fits the parallelization design aspects of the GPU architecture and the NVIDIA Compute Unified Device Architecture (CUDA), a GPU programming model. The parallelization strategy for a multi-GPU setup using CUDA is focused. Several performance improvements are analyzed and investigated with the help of a realistic 3D electromagnetic scattering example.
