Their applicability in control applications is often limited by the availability of algorithms that can solve them efficiently and within the sampling time of the controlled system. In this paper we propose a dual accelerated proximal gradient algorithm which is amenable to parallelization and demonstrate that its GPU implementation affords high speed-up values (with respect to a CPU implementation) and greatly outperforms well-established commercial optimizers such as Gurobi.
