Foil 2 Abstract of Parallel Programming for Particle Dynamics

From Parallel Programming for Particle Dynamics Extra Foils Computational Science CPS615 -- Spring 2000 Semester. by Geoffrey C. Fox


This uses the simple O(N2) Particle Dynamics Problem as a motivator to discuss solution of ordinary differential equations
We discuss Euler, Runge Kutta and predictor corrector methods
Various Message parallel O(N2) algorithms are described with performance comments
There is a related data parallel module sharing the same initial foils and another module with a discussion of advanced methods of this type (tree algorithms for Green's function solutions) for Earthquake science
