Abstract Computational simulation of complex physical processes encountered in the design of advanced defense and commercial products increasingly requires modeling the complete three-dimensional geometrical details with tens of millions of grid cells to properly capture the physics. Advances in parallel computing, both in hardware and software, now make it feasible to solve such large scale simulations in a timely manner. The objective of this paper is to describe some of the recent work at Rockwell in performing parallel computing for providing quick-turnaround solutions to problems in Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), Computational Electromagnetics (CEM) and other computational disciplines.
