Abstract

A method for speeding Rietveld refinements using parallel computing is presented. The method can be applied to most, if not all, Rietveld refinement programs. An example implementation for the Los AlamosGeneral Structure Analysis System(GSAS) package is described. Using a cluster with seven processors, least-squares refinements are completed 2.5 to 5 times faster than on an equivalent single-processor computer.
