Abstract
In this work we present new results obtained from the application of the fast simulated algorithm (FSA) to the surface structure determination of the Ag(1 1 0) and CdTe(1 1 0) systems. The influence of a control parameter, the “initial temperature”, on the FSA search process was investigated. A scaling behaviour, that measures the efficiency of a search method as a function of the number of parameters to be varied, was obtained for the FSA algorithm, and indicated a favourable linear scaling ( N 1).
