Title
Shared-Memory Parallel Vector Implementation of the Immersed Boundary Method for the Computation of Blood Flow in the Beating Mammalian Heart
Abstract
This paper describes the parallel implementation of the immersedboundary method on a shared-memory machine such as the Cray C-90computer. In this implementation, outer loops are parallelized andinner loops are vectorized. The sustained computation rates achievedare 0.258 Gflops with a single processor, 1.89 Gflops with 8processors, and 2.50 Gflops with 16 processors. An application to thecomputer simulation of blood flow in the heart is presented.
