In this sense, this work shows a parallel implementation of an explicit scheme of finite difference (FD) proposed by Kelly et. al., to solve the Partial Differential Equation (PDE / EDDP) of the Wave Propagation problem in an elastic, homogeneous or heterogeneous, two-dimensional medium. High-Performance-Fortran (HPF) will be used here for this purpose. This report shows measures of time on a PC-Cluster using 1, 2, and 4 processors with different sizes of data grid. In addition, a comparative test is included in which the cluster was initially connected using a Fast-Ethernet card, and then connected by a Myrinet card, using a grid size of 2500 x 2500 in both cases. The execution time achieved with two processors was highly satisfactory for all cases. In analogous conditions, the performance obtained with a Myrinet interconnection was better than the one obtained with a Fast-Ethernet interconnection. The scheme mentioned above has showed an excellent numerical result as it could be seen on the images included in this work. Key words: Partial differential equation, wave equation, explicite finite differences scheme, parallel scheme.</p>","PeriodicalId":75378,"journal":{"name":"Acta cientifica venezolana","volume":"54 3","pages":"153-61"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41008805","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
