This paper considers the functionality of FDTD (Finite difference time-domain) method for parallel computing; the main difficulties that arise in its practical use are listed; a comparison with other numerical methods of electromagnetic phenomena simulation is made. The requirements to performance balance of supercomputer node, at which effective implementation of the parallel version of FDTD method is possible, are specified. The need for computing at exaflops scale for solving the tasks of integral nanophotonics is shown, an approach to solving such problems is proposed.

Key words: FDTD, FDTD method, parallel FDTD, Finite Difference Time Domain.

  1. Rattling fantastic information can be found on site.Blog monetyze

  2. great post.Never knew this, thankyou for letting me know.

  3. Greetings from Los angeles! I’m bored to death at work so I decided to browse your website on my iphone during lunch break. I enjoy the info you provide here and can’t wait to take a look when I get home. I’m amazed at how quick your blog loaded on my mobile .. I’m not even using WIFI, just 3G .. Anyhow, wonderful blog!
