Abstract

We present a parallel implementation of an algorithm for the determination of the electromagnetic field in a closed three-dimensional space. A homogenous dielectric and a remote radiation source are taken into consideration for the region under scope. Computations were carried out on the two different systems: a parallel MIMD computer, ALEX AVX2; and a cluster system, a network of PCs with an MPI library and Windows NT system. Analysis of the efficiency for the proposed parallel algorithm was carried out in both cases. Based on the results obtained we discuss the advantages and disadvantages of the use of parallel MIMD computers and cluster systems in numerical computations
