Development of a Parallel Scene Generation Electromagnetic Modeling Tool

Abstract

This paper presents the results to date of an on-going development effort to provide a sealable, portable, parallel scene generation tool that will provide the capability to rapidly generate scenes of radiating and scattering structures in realistically complex electromagnetic environments. The benefit of such a tool is that it will provide users with the capability to solve large problems that cannot be currently solved with existing sequential electromagnetic modeling tools. This tool supports a broad range of users including researchers algorithm developers, analysts, and system developers. This paper will present the parallelization process highlighting the strategies used and will show the results to date. The project presented here is the parallelization of WIPL-D, an electromagnetic modeling tool. Through parallelization, the well known and commercially available tool will become faster and possess increased capabilities. This paper will walk you through the parallelization process, providing the strategies used and the results received.
