Abstract
A method and system are provided for performing the computational execution of automation tasks with automation devices by combining one or more central processing units (CPU) and one or more Graphics Processing Units (GPU). The control tasks and/or control algorithms are executed by the single-core or multi-core control unit (CPU) and a multi-core-graphics processor (GPU) or both in parallel at the same time.
