To meet this needs, we are conducting research in performing high performance building simulation using multi-core CPU and GPU (graphics processing units). By optimizing the numerical algorithm and using the multi-core CPU and GPU, we have successfully accelerated the indoor airflow simulation up to 1,500 times and daylighting simulation up to 12,000 times.</p> <h2>Collaborators</h2> <p>&nbsp;<a href="https://www.lbl.gov/" rel="nofollow">Lawrence Berkeley&nbsp;National Laboratory</a></p> <h2>Press Release</h2> <p><a href="http://www.coe.miami.edu/simulating-dense-gas-transport/" rel="nofollow">UM&nbsp;College of Engineering News "SBS lab's Research: Simulating Dense Gas Transport"</a></p> <h2><strong>Publications</strong></h2> <p>W.
