Abstract

In many applications, it may be advisable to "tear apart" the computational domain into several sub-domains separated by "seams," each one treated separately. The sub-domains are then sewn back together at appropriate stages of the computation. Three main diakoptic strategies have been developed in the recent past. Out of these, the diakoptics on-the-fly strategy can serve the purpose of parallelizing a FDTD process over several processors, each of which being responsible for the treatment of a certain sub-domain, as presented below.
