This package contains code and sample data for 3d Edwards-Anderson Model 
simulation for systems with NVidia GPUs. This code uses multi-spin coding
technique to store the spins and enhance performance, and Parallel tempering
technique to facilitate equilibration. 

Please refer to the following paper for more detailed description.
