GPGPU implementation of the BFECC algorithm for pure advection equations.

In the present work an implementation of the Back and Forth Error Compensation and Correction (BFECC) algorithm specially suited for running on General-Purpose Graphics Processing Units (GPGPUs) through Nvidia's Compute Unified Device Architecture (CUDA) is analyzed in order to solve transient pure advection equations. The objective is to compare it to a previous explicit version used in a Navier-Stokes solver fully written in CUDA. It turns out that BFECC could be implemented with unconditional stable stability using Semi-Lagrangian time integration allowing larger time steps than Eulerian ones. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
