On kernel acceleration of electromagnetic solvers via hardware emulation
We present an emulation-based accelerator for EM simulations in metamaterials. We propose two hardware designs to solve systems of linear equations from the FEM. Both presented designs are run on a physical Veloce 1 emulator from Mentor Graphics. Timing results exceed the performance of several software-based solvers.
