Asian Option Pricing on Intel® MIC Architecture
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we discuss the problem of pricing one exotic option, the strong path dependent Asian option using the Black–Scholes model and compare how the pricing algorithm can be implemented on Intel® Many Integrated Core or MIC Architecture and achieve impressive performance gains. We can demonstrate that a 2-year contract with 252 times steps and 1,000,000 samples can be priced in approximately one fifth of a second on Intel® Xeon PhiTM 7120p.

متن کاملAccelerating Asian option pricing on many-core architectures
In this paper, we start by looking at the algorithms and the numerical methods of pricing one exotic option, the strong path dependent Asian option using the Black–Scholes pricing model. We cover both geometric average and arithmetic average schemes that lead us to two different numerical solutions. Next, we discuss how to implement these algorithms on the leading many-core architectures with c...
متن کاملVariance analysis of control variate technique and applications in Asian option pricing
This paper presents an analytical view of variance reduction by control variate technique for pricing arithmetic Asian options as a financial derivatives. In this paper, the effect of correlation between two random variables is shown. We propose an efficient method for choose suitable control in pricing arithmetic Asian options based on the control variates (CV). The numerical experiment shows ...

متن کاملFirst experiences with the Intel MIC architecture at LRZ
With the rapidly growing demand for computing power new accelerator based architectures have entered the world of high performance computing since around 5 years. In particular GPGPUs have recently become very popular, however programming GPGPUs using programming languages like CUDA or OpenCL is cumbersome and errorprone. Trying to overcome these difficulties, Intel developed their own Many Int...
