Abstract :
This paper introduced a strategy for parallel implementation of the FDTD algorithm using a COW (cluster of workstations) parallel computing system. Some computing examples were given to prove the feasibility, correctness and high efficiency of this method. This method provides a solve-scheme for the EM computation of electrically large-sized complex objects and can be used in EMC analysis.
