Study, Analysis, And Acceleration Of An N-Body Simulation Under Many-Core Environments Using An Object Oriented Approach

The N-Body problem is a widely known problem commonly found in physics and astronomy, where large objects interact with each other all the time. The N-Body problem is used to study the motions of the sun, moon, planets, and visible starts in space. Due to its computationally extensive nature, the N-Body problem requires a lot of computational power to be solved sequentially on a computer. However, certain aspects of the problem can be ported to the GPU, which can significantly increase efficiency and lower execution times. Object-Oriented Programming is a widely used programming paradigm based on the concept of objects. This research aims to study, analyze, and accelerate the N-Body problem on an embedded system, the NVIDIA Jetson, using an OOP approach.
