我们描述了一种自适应的方法来实现负载平衡的并行计算模拟现象分布在一个空间上扩展的区域，但在本质上是本地的。我们已经测试了标准的短程并行分子动力学计算的方法。我们观察到的性能增益证实了这种计算方法的价值。我们讨论了可能的概括的方法，例如，更高的维度。(C)北京大学出版社.
We describe an adaptive method for achieving load balance in parallel computations simulating phenomena which are distributed over a spatially extended region, but are local in nature. We have tested the method on standard short-ranged parallel molecular dynamics calculations. The performance gain we observe confirms the value of the method for this type of calculation. We discuss possible generalizations of the method, for example, to higher dimensions. (C) 2000 Academic Press.
