We deal with the design of parallel algorithms by using variable partitioning techniques to solve nonlinear optimization problems. We propose an iterative solution method that is very efficient for separable functions, our scope being to discuss its performance for general functions. Experimental results on an illustra …
In this paper we propose a parallel implementation for the flood propagation method Flo2DH. The model is built on a finite element spatial approximation combined with a Newton algorithm that uses a direct LU linear solver. The parallel implementation has been developed by using the standard MPI protocol and has been te …
In this work, a two-step approach is adopted for scheduling tasks with synchronous inter-task communication. To that end, an efficient algorithm, called GLB-Synch, is introduced for mapping clusters and ordering tasks on processors. The algorithm used the information obtained during the clustering step for selecting a …
