A parallel algorithm for solving BSDEs.

Summary We present a parallel algorithm for solving backward stochastic differential equations. We improve the algorithm proposed in Gobet Labart (2010), based on an adaptive Monte Carlo method with Picard's iterations, and propose a parallel version of it. We test our algorithm on linear and non linear drivers up to dimension 8 on a cluster of 312 CPUs. We obtained very encouraging speedups greater than 0.7.
