We describe the design and implementation of efficient parallel algorithms, and a software library for the parallel implementation of compressed octree data structures. Octrees are widely used in supporting hierarchical methods for scientific applications such as the N-body problem, molecular dynami

Newton's method, because of its quadratic convergence, is mathematically the most preferable of the several known methods for the solution of load flow problems. However, this method is not absolutely convergent for ill-conditioned problems. This paper presents a modification to Newton's method desi
Ab initio force field parameters are refined using modifications to Newton's method in which a figure of merit function is approximated as a Taylor Series truncated at second order. We investigate two versions of Newton's method: the Discrete Newton method where the Hessian is approximated by finite

We present a specific use of domain decomposition and decomposition in function space combined with asymptotic analytical qualitative results to obtain, on parallel computers, efficient and accurate solvers [3] for rapidly varying quasi-planar unsteady combustion fronts in liquids. In particular, we
