General purpose graphics processing units (GP-GPUs) have recently been explored as a new computing paradigm for accelerating computation intensive EDA applications. Such many-core architectures have been applied for (i) accelerating both logic and fault simulation of HDL designs, (ii) accelerating simulation of such designs described both at RTL and Gate level, (iii) accelerating SystemC simulation. This embedded tutorial presents a comprehensive analysis of the best results obtained by adopting GP-GPUs in all these EDA applications.
