Numerical Simulation is an essential part of the design and optimisation of astronomical adaptive optics systems. Simulations of adaptive optics are computationally expensive and the problem scales rapidly with telescope aperture size, as the required spatial order of the correcting system increases. Practical realistic simulations of AO systems for extremely large telescopes are beyond the capabilities of all but the largest of modern parallel supercomputers. Here we describe a more cost effective approach through the use of hardware acceleration using field programmable gate arrays. By transferring key parts of the simulation into programmable logic, large increases in computational bandwidth can be expected. We show that the calculation of wavefront sensor image centroids can be accelerated by a factor of four by transferring the algorithm into hardware. Implementing more demanding parts of the adaptive optics simulation in hardware will lead to much greater performance improvements, of up to 1000 times.

We discuss the unique capabilities of programmable logic devices (PLDs) for experimental quantum optics and describe basic procedures of design and implementation. Examples of advanced applications include optical metrology and feedback control of qu
antum dynamical systems. As a tutorial illustration of the PLD implementation process, a field programmable gate array (FPGA) controller is used to stabilize the output of a Fabry-Perot cavity.
This paper proposes the implementation of programmable threshold logic gate (TLG) crossbar array based on modified TLG cells for high speed processing and computation. The proposed TLG array operation does not depend on input signal and time pulses,
comparing to the existing architectures. The circuit is implemented using TSMC $180nm$ CMOS technology. The on-chip area and power dissipation of the simulated $3times 4$ TLG array is $1463 mu m^2$ and $425 mu W$, respectively.
We introduce a constructive algorithm for universal linear electromagnetic transformations between the $N$ input and $N$ output modes of a dielectric slab. The approach uses out-of-plane phase modulation programmed down to $N^2$ degrees of freedom. T
he total area of these modulators equals that of the entire slab: our scheme satisfies the minimum area constraint for programmable linear optical transformations. We also present error correction schemes that enable high-fidelity unitary transformations at large $N$. This ``programmable multimode interferometer (ProMMI) thus translates the algorithmic simplicity of Mach-Zehnder meshes into a holographically programmed slab, yielding DoF-limited compactness and error tolerance while eliminating the dominant sidewall-related optical losses and directional-coupler-related patterning challenges.
Anderson acceleration (AA) is a popular method for accelerating fixed-point iterations, but may suffer from instability and stagnation. We propose a globalization method for AA to improve stability and achieve unified global and local convergence. Un
like existing AA globalization approaches that rely on safeguarding operations and might hinder fast local convergence, we adopt a nonmonotone trust-region framework and introduce an adaptive quadratic regularization together with a tailored acceptance mechanism. We prove global convergence and show that our algorithm attains the same local convergence as AA under appropriate assumptions. The effectiveness of our method is demonstrated in several numerical experiments.
Low-latency detections of gravitational waves (GWs) are crucial to enable prompt follow-up observations to astrophysical transients by conventional telescopes. We have developed a low-latency pipeline using a technique called Summed Parallel Infinite
Impulse Response (SPIIR) filtering, realized by a Graphic Processing Unit (GPU). In this paper, we exploit the new textit{Maxwell} memory access architecture in NVIDIA GPUs, namely the read-only data cache, warp-shuffle, and cross-warp atomic techniques. We report a 3-fold speed-up over our previous implementation of this filtering technique. To tackle SPIIR with relatively few filters, we develop a new GPU thread configuration with a nearly 10-fold speedup. In addition, we implement a multi-rate scheme of SPIIR filtering using Maxwell GPUs. We achieve more than 100-fold speed-up over a single core CPU for the multi-rate filtering scheme. This results in an overall of 21-fold CPU usage reduction for the entire SPIIR pipeline.
