    Notes: A major limitation of the transmission-line matrix (TLM) method used to solve Maxwell's equations is the long computation time required. The TLM scattering calculations involved can, however, be viewed as parallel in nature. This paper describes an effort to reduce computational time by using an SIMD, DAP multiprocessor computer employed to solve a two-dimensional TLM electromagnetic field formulation. A parallel algorithm based on the TLM scattering algorithm is designed and implemented using FORTRAN- PLUS Enhanced on an AMT DAP 510 machine. Here the connectivity of the DAP is exploited to simulate the intrinsic scattering behaviour on which the TLM algorithm relies. The results show that parallel processing on an SIMD machine such as the DAP is advantageous, especially for higher-order mesh sizes.

    Notes: In this paper a parallel algorithm is created for solving electromagnetic wave scattering problems. The algorithm based on the finite difference time-domain (FDTD) representation of the Maxwell's equations written in 3L Parallel Fortran for use on a transputer array.The problem simulated consists of a space (air) where a spherical dielectric scatterer is located. This space is subdivided into fine equisize meshes extending throughout the 3-D domain; the excitation wave is of sinusoidal form. Geometric decomposition is used as the principal algorithm strategy.Results are presented for the performance of the classical sequential algorithm and compared with the parallel algorithm in terms of computational speed-up.

    Concurrent processing: The key to rapid probabilistic potential methods (1990)
    Chichester [u.a.] : Wiley-Blackwell

    Notes: This paper shows how probabilistic potential methods based on the Monte Carlo approach can be efficiently mapped onto an array of concurrent processors and how the resulting algorithm can provide rapid solutions of harmonic function problems. The method described here exploits the natural concurrency of the Monte Carlo approach. Computation is achieved by use of a low-cost array of transputers linked to a PC-AT. The resulting methodology is powerful and the ideas suggested should have application to many other modelling techniques used for field modelling.A microstrip geometry is used as the discussion vehicle throughout this paper. This geometry was selected since it exhibits a number of the important topological features required in a general problem, e.g. Dirichlet boundary conditions and mixed dielectric. The design of the parallel algorithm used is discussed in detail, and typical results are given.

    Optimizing FDTD electromagnetic field computation on distributed networks (1998)

    Notes: The solution of Maxwell's equations is considered using the finite difference time domain (FDTD) method and the client-server software paradigm on a heterogeneous network of distributed computers. The performance of compilers is evaluated and the PVM 3.3 message-passing harness, in both its conventional and TCP mode of operation, is compared with direct calls to the lesser known TCP/IP routines on the operating system. An example is given showing the impact of using different floating-point representations, in each subdomain, when computing field updates. As far as we are aware to date, there has been no discussion of the actual content of the communication between concurrent FDTD processes; accordingly we have defined one such protocol. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    A SOFTWARE TOOL FOR ACTIVE ANTENNA ARRAY DYNAMICAL EVALUATION (1997)

    Notes: This paper describes a modelling strategy and a software tool for simulating the dynamical behaviour of an active antenna array. The array consists of active radiating elements placed in a chain, i.e. a collinear array arrangement. To assist modelling of the active antenna array a macro model has been used to represent each of the radiating elements in the array. This simplifies analysis and allows dynamical performance to be efficiently computed, the resulting dynamical behaviour of the array being presented as an animated visualization. A computer program is presented which can simulate the active array in the time domain so that various characteristics, such as mode formation and spacial coupling effects, can be observed. Experimental validation is given in order to justify the mode formation predictions of the simulator. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Concurrent processing applied to the Exodus Monte Carlo technique (1991)

    Notes: This paper illustrates how problems based on the Probabilistic Potential Method can be solved using a parallelized form of the Exodus Monte Carlo technique. The Exodus technique which does not use random number generation is shown to be more efficient for moderately large problems than the conventional fixed random walk method when programmed in both sequential and concurrent forms.The technique is illustrated for an electrostatic field problem by using as an example internal potential evaluation for a rectangular coaxial line. The problem geometry is torn into subsections which are then analysed independently using concurrent programming methods. The resulting algorithm is compared with the same problem executed using a conventional sequential algorithm. Computation is achieved by use of an array of transputers. The design of the concurrent algorithm is described in detail and typical results are compared with the fixed random walk Monte Carlo method and also with the finite difference relaxation method. Parallel Fortran is used throughout as the programming language.

    Notes: A major limitation of the boundary element method (BEM) for the solution of electrical potential problems is the long computational time required. However, a large portion of the calculations involved can be viewed as being parallel in nature and can therefore be computed concurrently. This paper makes an effort to increase the efficiency of the BEM process using transputer-based multiprocessor computing techniques. The algorithms developed may equally well be applied to any multiprocessor system. The application selected to demonstrate the technique is the solution of an electrostatic problem governed by a two-dimensional Laplace equation.A parallel algorithm for problem setup and field extraction using BEM is designed and implemented on a transputer array. Special attention is directed to the utilization of the parallel processors to achieve maximum efficiency. The analysis in this work concentrates on the communication strategies for passing data between processors as well as a consideration of the workload attributed to each processor.The parallel algorithms were implemented using 3L Parallel Fortran; however, the choice of topology for the overall BEM implementation was limited by the fact that certain parts of the algorithm could only utilize a pipeline configuration of processors. Comprehensive results for the parallel BEM algorithm are given and they are encouraging, indicating that parallel processing has much to offer when applied to the boundary element method.

    The parallel computation of solutions to electrostatic problems using multigrid techniques (1994)

    Notes: The application of multigrid techniques to the computation of the static solutions of electromagnetic field problems governed by Laplace's equation is described. This technique is compared with the conventional successive over-relaxation (SOR) method for solving finite difference problems. In contrast to SOR, the number of iterations of multigrid needed to achieve convergence is largely independent of the grid size. It is shown that the relative performance of multigrid is excellent on large grids where the number of iterations of SOR needed to achieve convergence becomes prohibitively large. The technique is illustrated by applying a parallel implementation of multigrid to find a quasistatic solution of a boxed microstrip problem.
