Simulation of Heat Diffusion in the Brain Using the OpenACC Library

The aim of this work is to rewrite the implementation of heat transfer in brain written in programming language Matlab (available in the k-Wave package) into C / C ++, accelerate it on GPU using library OpenACC and CUDA, and then compare these libraries in performance and complexity of implementation. The solution describes how to program a graphics card and how to apply this knowledge. The created program is able to simulate heat dissipation on CPU and GPU
