Abstract :
This paper presents modeling and simulation utilizing a parallel conformal finite-difference time-domain (Yu and Mittra, 2003) code developed at the Electromagnetic Communication Laboratory, Pennsylvania State University, on a massively parallel supercomputer. Parallelization, scalability, and application to the modeling of high-end server electrical interconnects are examined.
