Tapping the Supercomputer Under Your Desk : Solving Dynamic Equilibrium Models with Graphics Processors

Aldrich, Eric M. - 2010

This paper shows how to build algorithms that use graphics processing units (GPUs) installed in most modern computers to solve dynamic equilibrium models in economics. In particular, we rely on the compute unified device architecture (CUDA) of NVIDIA GPUs. We illustrate the power of the approach...
