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,...
