Parallel Globally Adaptive Algorithms for Multi-dimensional Integration
نویسندگان
چکیده
We address the problem of implementing globally adaptive algorithms for multi-dimensional numerical integration on parallel computers. By adapting and extending algorithms which we have developed for one-dimensional quadrature we develop algorithms for the multi-dimensional case. The algorithms are targeted at the lat-est generation of parallel computers, and are therefore independent of the network topology. Numerical results on a Kendall Square Research KSR-1 are reported.

متن کاملParallel High-Dimensional Integration: Quasi-Monte Carlo versus Adaptive Cubature Rules
Parallel algorithms for the approximation of a multi-dimensional integral over an hyper-rectangular region are discussed. Algorithms based on quasi-Monte Carlo techniques are compared with adaptive algorithms, and scalable parallel versions of both algorithms are presented. Special care has been taken to point out the role of the cubature formulas the adaptive algorithms are based on, and diffe...
متن کاملA Comparison of Parallel Algorithms for Multi-Dimensional Integration
A central feature of adaptive algorithms for the numerical approximation of definite integrals is the list containing the sub-intervals and corresponding error estimates. Fundamentally different parallel algorithms result depending on whether the list is maintained as a single shared data structure accessible to all processors, or else as the union of non-overlapping sublists, each private to a...
متن کاملParallel Globally Adaptive Quadrature on the KSR
New algorithms for parallel one-dimensional globally adaptive quadrature are developed. The algorithms are implemented on a Kendall Square Research KSR-1 parallel computer and numerical results are presented. The most successful algorithm gives signiicant speedups on a range of hard problems, including ones with singular integrands.
