摘要
We describe an algorithm for dynamic load balancing of geometrically parallelized synchronous Monte Carlo simulations of physical models. This algorithm is designed for a (heterogeneous) multiprocessor system of the MIMD type with distributed memory. The algorithm is based on a dynamic partitioning of the domain of the algorithm, taking into account the actual processor resources of the various processors of the multiprocessor system.
