GPU computing?

Asked by Achim Schroll

Hi!
what is the developers feeling about GPU computing? Will FEniCS run on GPU clusters in future?
The background to the question is that SDU is hosting Denmarks largest supercomputer http://www.dcsc.sdu.dk/
At present applications for the next generation hardware are discussed and an obvious option is a GPU cluster.
Best, Achim

Yes!

I have a master student working on this (and there may be other
efforts). We will announce our plans once they start to materialize.
