LBM performance results on (a) a 16 node shared memory system using OpenMP. Parallel scalability with increasing number of threads. (b) on a single Geforce 8800 GT graphics card using Jacket MATLAB GPU engine vs single core of a 3.33 GHz Quad Core CPU. Parallel speedup scalability with increasing problem size.
