EXPLOITING PARALLELISM IN A SnTRANSPORT ALGORITHM: AN ANGULAR APPROACH
S. D. Altekar, Asok Kumar Ray · International Journal of Parallel Emergent and Distributed Systems · 1994
We report the results of angular parallelization studies of a S n electron transport algorithm on a Cray Y-MP 8/864. Three different algorithmic approaches, varying from ordered to chaotic, have been implemented with focus on relative speedup, data locality and process synchronization. In general, chaoticity favors parallelism and the state of maximum concurrency is the state of best performance.
