9780898710557: Solution of Partial Differential Equations on Vector and Parallel Computers

Synopsis

This volume reviews, in the context of partial differential equations, algorithm development that has been specifically aimed at computers that exhibit some form of parallelism. Emphasis is on the solution of PDEs because these are typically the problems that generate high computational demands. The authors discuss architectural features of these computers in so much as they influence algorithm performance, and provide insight into algorithm characteristics that allow effective use of hardware.
