Efficiency of Monte Carlo method to solve nonlinear coagulation equation when implemented on parallel computers (including GRID infrastructure)
A parallel Direct Simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) algorithm for solution of a spatially inhomogeneous nonlinear coagulation equation is presented. The algorithm is based on a simulation of the evolution of stochastically distributed ensembles of test particles. The algorithm can be effectively implemented on parallel computers with different architectures including GRID infrastructure based on MPLS networks. A problem of minimization of the computational cost for the algorithm is considered. To implement the algorithm on GRID infrastructure we carry out preliminary simulation on an underlying network. Such simulation enables us to define the minimal network bandwidth necessary for an efficient parallel decomposition of the DSMC algorithm.
