Abstract

The use of graphics processing units for scientific computations is an emerging strategy that can significantly speed up various algorithms. In this review, we discuss advances made in the field of computational physics, focusing on classical molecular dynamics and quantum simulations for electronic structure calculations using the density functional theory, wave function techniques and quantum field theory.
