Scarle’s XBoxian firsts - Improbable Research
Dr. Simon Scarle of Warwick University tells us some merits of his study “Implications of the Turing completeness of reaction-diffusion models, informed by GPGPU simulations on an XBox 360: Cardiac arrhythmias, re-entry and the Halting problem”: In this paper I used an XBox 360’s GPU to simulate cardiac tissue and carry out research on the underlying principles behind a heart attack.
