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...

A Practical Guide to Parallelization in Economics
Fernández-Villaverde, Jesús - 2018
This guide provides a practical introduction to parallel computing in economics. After a brief introduction to the basic ideas of parallelization, we show how to parallelize a prototypical application in economics using, on CPUs, Julia, Matlab, R, Python, C++-OpenMP, Rcpp-OpenMP, and C++-MPI,...
