OSTI ID:5145432

The present conference discusses topics in the fields of matrix computations, numerical methods, differential equations, parallel processing applications in science, computer languages and software systems for parallel processing, and parallel computer architectures. Attention is given to Gaussian techniques on shared memory multiprocessors, a novel parallel algorithm for linear triangular systems, parallel rapid elliptic solvers, parallel multivariate numerical integration, and the implementation of the acceptance-rejection method on parallel processors. Also discussed are a parallel multilevel FEM with hierarchical basis functions, the parallel processing of a domain decomposition method, the parallelization of adaptive grid domain mappings, the automated decomposition of FEM meshes for hypercube computers, parallel vision algorithms, the programming of parallel architectures, iteration space tiling for memory hierarchies, the Cerberus multiprocessor simulator, and a parallel architecture for optical computing.
