Abstract
Parallel computing seems to be the solution for molecular dynamics of large atomic systems, such as proteins in water environments, but the simulation time critically depends on the processor allocation strategy. A study of the optimal processor allocation based on a space decomposition algorithm for single instruction multiple data flow mesh computers is presented. A particular effort has been made to identify the best criterion according to which the atoms can be allocated to the processors using a spatial decomposition approach. The computing time depends on the granularity of the space decomposition among processing elements and on the ratio between the computation power of processing elements and the communication speed of the interprocessor network. © 1996 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
