During the past few years, general-purpose graphics processing units (GPGPUs) have become rather popular in the high performance computing community. In this study, we present an implementation of the simulation of dynamic nuclear magnetic resonance (DNMR) spectra. The algorithm is based on the kinetic Monte Carlo method and therefore can benefit from the multithreaded architecture of the GPGPU. By careful optimization of the algorithm a 30-100-fold speed increase could be achieved.
