Special mathematical functions are an integral part of Fractional Calculus, one of them is the Airy function. But it’s a gruelling task for the processor as well as system that is constructed around the function when it comes to evaluating the special mathematical functions on an ordinary Central Processing Unit (CPU). The Parallel processing capabilities of a Graphics processing Unit (GPU) hence is used. In this paper GPU is used to get a speedup in time required, with respect to CPU time for evaluating the Airy function on its real domain. The objective of this paper is to provide a platform for computing the special functions which will accelerate the time required for obtaining the result and thus comparing the performance of numerical solution of Airy function using CPU and GPU.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
