Accelerating Gravitational N-Body Simulations Using the RISC-V-Based Tenstorrent Wormhole
DescriptionAlthough originally developed primarily for artificial intelligence workloads, RISC-V-based accelerators are also emerging as attractive platforms for high-performance scientific computing. In this work, we present our approach to accelerating an astrophysical N-body code on the RISC-V-based Wormhole n300 card developed by Tenstorrent. Our results show that this platform can be highly competitive for astrophysical simulations employing this class of algorithms, delivering more than a 2x speedup and approximately 2x energy savings compared to a highly optimized CPU implementation of the same code.
