Data updating method using overlap area and program converting device for converting update program in distributed-memory parallel processor

摘要

In a parallel processor, a local area and an overlap area are assigned to the memory of each processing element (PE), and each PE makes calculations to update the data in both areas at the runtime. If the data in the overlap area is updated in processes closed in the PEs, the data transfer between adjacent PEs can be reduced and the parallel processes can be performed at a high speed.
