Abstract of Parallel Programming for Laplace’s Equation

• 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
