Advanced parallel "many-core" framework for reservoir simulation

Abstract:

The disclosure relates generally to a parallel computing framework designed to accelerate intensive kernel operations and address the complex physics in numerical reservoir simulations by effectively using the `many-core` computing platform. Specifically, this Many-core Advanced Parallel Simulation (MAPS) uses heuristics to decide the optimal hardware configurations and optimal software components for a given problem's characteristics to efficiently design a model.
