We propose a novel and efficient algorithm to parallelize the finite-difference time-domain method, where the observation period is divided into an arbitrary number of subsections, whose computation is distributed to corresponding computer nodes. The proposed algorithm roughly reduces the computational time to an nth fraction of the conventional algorithm, where n is the number of nodes for parallel computing, thus verifying its efficiency improvement.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
