Abstract :
In this paper, we have investigated the possibility of employing the GPU as a co-processor for accelerating the SBR simulation. By means of the Opengl graphics API and Opengl shading language (GLSL), the powerful floating-point processing ability of a GPU is available for the processing of SBR while retaining the numerical precision. And Numerical experiments give us some confidence for the future work.
