Distributed Object Oriented Numerical Software

DOONS - ITDC-201

Keywords: distributed memory, numerical methods, parallel processing, object oriented programming

Start Date: 1 February 95 / Duration: 30 months

Objectivies and Approach

The aim of the project is to exploit all the power of C and C⁺⁺ to build an intrinsic distributed object oriented (DOO) matrix computation package, keeping in mind generality, reusability, extensibility and efficiency.

This project is strongly linked to the KIT108 project. The availability of a new parallel computer in Oujda will boot our already existing cooperation. There will be a strong interaction between the KIT and this ITDC project, which will provide the university of Oujda with the necessary platform for implementation and development.

Progress and Results

Progress has been made in the exploitation of the symmetry in the parallelisation of the Jacobi method for distributed memory architectures.

Information Dissemination Activities and/or Exploitation

Within the project, the first "Parallelism Days" were organised at the Faculty of Sciences in Oujda in November 1996. The results achieved so far have been presented at two international conferences.
