Developed a CUDA version of the FDTD method and achieved a speedup 40x. Implemented on a NVIDIA Quadro FX 3800 GPU, which has 192 SPs, 1GB global memory, and a memory bandwidth of 51.2 GB/s.
Finite-Difference Time-Domain (FDTD) methods have become a cornerstone in the simulation of electromagnetic phenomena, enabling researchers to solve Maxwell’s equations through discretisation in both ...
