The Grappas project, funded by the Equipe Projet Transversale program from Université Européenne de Bretagne (UEB) aims at evaluating (and improving) the efficiency of automatic parallelization techniques for accelerating electromagnetic FDTD simulations of antennas on GPUs (Graphical Processing Units). The project is a joint project between IETR (D. Thouroude and R. Sauleau) and IRISA (S. Derrien).
