The 11th of June 2013, we took advantage of the Inria-Industry national meeting to expose our works on the American basket option pricing. Our strategy relies on a two-level CPU/GPU parallelization of the Picazo algorithm, combining dynamic strategies to fully exploit distributed resources. During the event, we presented the difficulty to price such instruments in reasonable time, and highlight our solution through multiple tests on Grid’5000, of our pricing engine.
