Yuefan Deng, R. Alan McCoy, Robert B. Marr, R. Peierls, Osman Yaşar

Abstract

We report two aspects of a computational molecular dynamics study of large-scale problems on a distributed-memory MIMD parallel computer: (1) efficiency and scalability results on Intel Paragon parallel computers with up to 512 nodes and (2) a new method for dynamic load balancing.
