Numerical performance of the distributed vector finite-element time-domain algorithm
Résumé
This paper deals with a distributed time-domain modeling of electromagnetic phenomena with the finite-element method. The model is approximated by edge elements. The constitutive equations and method of parallelization of the algorithm are presented. The properties -of the distributed finite-element time-domain algorithm are discussed. Some typical performance metrics are studied for the parallel versions, of the software. The presented algorithm is executed on a heterogeneous and a homogeneous clusters of workstations. Two different distributed memory environments (MPI and PVM) are used to evaluate the efficiency of the algorithm.
