Parallel Mesh Generation

Parallel mesh generation in numerical analysis is a new research area between the boundaries of two scientific computing disciplines: computational geometry and parallel computing. Parallel mesh generation methods decompose the original mesh generation problem into smaller subproblems which are solved (meshed) in parallel using multiple processors or threads. The existing parallel mesh generation methods can be classified in terms of two basic attributes:

  1. the sequential technique used for meshing the individual subproblems and
  2. the degree of coupling between the subproblems.

One of the challenges in parallel mesh generation is to develop parallel meshing software using off-the-shelf sequential meshing codes.

Famous quotes containing the words parallel and/or generation:

    As I look at the human story I see two stories. They run parallel and never meet. One is of people who live, as they can or must, the events that arrive; the other is of people who live, as they intend, the events they create.
    Margaret Anderson (1886–1973)

    And his master commended the dishonest manager because he had acted shrewdly; for the children of this age are more shrewd in dealing with their own generation than are the children of light.
    Bible: New Testament, Luke 16:8.
