Abstract :
We have developed a general method for analyzing a certain class of continuous system simulation programs and for producing automatically a parallel version of the original serial program. The resulting parallel program runs on a local memory, message passing architecture parallel processor such as a hypercube. Our results indicate that significant speed-ups are possible even when message-passing overhead is taken into account.
