“Ansys Lumerical™ Simulations With GPU”
Author: Stephen Lin
Abstract
In the last decade, computing complexity has grown at an unprecedented rate. The needs of machine learning and AI have pushed the limits in the advancement of hardware, in turn allowing for improved capabilities for design, verification, and simulations. By leveraging GPU vs CPU accelerated simulations, the workflows of the next decade will undoubtedly set new standards for product development.
In a collaborative effort, NVIDIA, Exxact, Dream Photonics Inc., and SimuTech Group have come together to demonstrate the immense improvements in simulation speeds when leveraging GPU vs CPU. In this whitepaper, we showcase our benchmarking results and provide insight for users looking to transition to GPU simulations in Ansys Lumerical™.
