Abstract

This paper presents an e-cient technique for fast gener- ation of sparse systems of linear equations arising in computational electromagnetics in a flnite element method using higher order ele- ments. The proposed approach employs a graphics processing unit (GPU) for both numerical integration and matrix assembly. The per- formance results obtained on a test platform consisting of a Fermi GPU (1x Tesla C2075) and a CPU (2x twelve-core Opterons), indicate that the GPU implementation of the matrix generation allows one to achieve speedups by a factor of 81 and 19 over the optimized single- and multi-threaded CPU-only implementations, respectively.
