Abstract

The advantages of using a multi‐CPU concurrent computer in solving a steady state free surface seepage problem are studied. The underlying computational task is the solution of a large set of linear equations with a projection operation numerous times. In the study, both Jacobi and SOR iteration methods with projection in a modified alternating iteration scheme are used to solve the problem with varied number of nodes (CPUs) and the timing results are compared between a 32 node Hypercube Concurrent Computer and a VAX 11/780 (single CPU). In addition, the performance and the feasibility of the Hypercube Concurrent Computer are discussed by comparing with the number of nodes used and with the VAX 11/780.
