Abstract:
      The importance of the preprocess and the critical factors influencing the efficiency of the finite element parallel computation are pointed out firstly. Subsequently, two types of task partitioning method a re introduced and an improved task partitioning method is proposed. The test shows that the method is effective. Finally, based on network parall el environment and the message passing programming model, a method for reorderin g the sequence of message passing, which can reduce the communication cost, is p resented. And the comparison between the results before and after reordering is perf ormed.
