Foil 2 Abstract of Parallel Programming for Laplace's Equation

From Master Set for Parallel Programming for Laplace's Equation CPS615 Spring Semester 00 -- February 00. by Geoffrey C. Fox
This takes Jacobi Iteration for Laplace's Equation in a 2D square and uses this to illustrate:
Programming in both Data Parallel (HPF) and Message Passing (MPI and a simplified Syntax)
SPMD -- Single Program Multiple Data -- Programming Model
Stencil dependence of Parallel Program and use of Guard Rings
Collective Communication
Basic Speed Up, Efficiency and Performance Analysis with edge over area dependence and consideration of load imbalance and communication overhead effect
