MPRA Paper from University Library of Munich, Germany

Abstract: This paper discusses problems related to parallel computing applied in economics. It introduces the paradigms of parallel computing and emphasizes the new trends in this field - a combination between GPU computing, multicore computing and distributed computing. It also gives examples of problems arising from economics where these parallel methods can be used to speed up the computations
