Julian Spahl: Evaluation of Zonal Methods for Small Molecular Systems

Molecular dynamics simulations are an increasingly important tool for research in biological and chemical processes. To decrease the time needed for a simulation parallelization is introduced. One way to introduce parallelization is to cut the domain in zones. To exchange the forces each process needs information about the particles of other processes. This communication can be done in different schemes. In this work three of these zonal parallelization methods were implemented and evaluated. Finally they are compared to the current implementation of MarDyn.
