Parallel implementation of the steepest descent fast multipole method (SDFMM) on a Beowulf cluster for subsurface sensing applications
2002
IEEE Microwave and Wireless Components Letters
We present the parallel, MPI−based implementation of the SDFMM computer code using a thirty two−node Intel Pentium−based Beowulf cluster. The SDFMM is a fast algorithm that is a hybridization of the Method of Moment (MoM), the Fast Multipole Method (FMM) and the Steepest Descent Integration rule (SDP), which is used to solve large−scale linear systems of equations produced electromagnetic scattering problems. An overall speedup of 7.2 has been achieved on the 32−processor Beowulf cluster and a
