1)Classic solution of large scale PDE or Particle dynamics problem
-
Data parallelism over grid points or particles
|
| 2 |
2)Modest Grain size Functional Parallelism as seen in overlap of communication and computation in a node process of a parallel implementation.
-
More generally overlap of I/O -- disk,visualization -- and computation
|

3)Object parallelism seen in Distributed Simulation where "world" modelled (typically by event driven simulation) as set of interacting macroscopic (larger than grid points) objects
-
Objects are weopens, military units etc. in SIMNET/DSI (Forces Modelling)
|

4)MetaProblems consisting of several large grain functionally distinct components such as
-
Structural Analysis, Airflow, Manufacturing Process, Pricing, Controls etc. in MDO approach to manufacturing and design
-
more generally are components of a Problem Solving Environment
