Parallel Programming for Particle Dynamics Extra Foils

Given by Geoffrey C. Fox at Computational Science CPS615 on Spring 2000 Semester. Foils prepared February 25 2000

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
