Architecture-Adaptable Finite ElementModelling: A Case Study using an OceanCirculation SimulationSanthosh Kumarany, Robert N. Millerz, and Michael J. QuinnyyDepartment of Computer ScienceOregon State University, Corvallis, OR 97331.zCollege of Oceanic and Atmospheric SciencesOregon State University, Corvallis, OR 97331.AbstractWe describe an architecture-adaptable methodology for the parallel implemen-tation of nite element numerical models of physical systems. We use a model oftime-dependent ocean currents as our working example. The heart of the com-putation is the solution of a banded line
