            Abstract : 
A simulation algorithm is proposed which reproduces, at a great CPU time saving, solutions of multilevel master equations used to describe thermally driven dynamics of interacting particle arrays. Hysteresis loops for planar particle arrays are computed and the stability of intermediate, partially demagnetized configurations and their dependence on array size are discussed
