Parallelizing multilevel fast multipole algorithm for large-scale electromagnetic problem on GPU clusters

In this paper, we investigate the parallelization of the Multi-level Fast Multipole Algorithm (MLFMA) for solving large scale electromagnetic scattering problems. We evaluate the performance on our 13-node Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) cluster supported by Nvidia Tesla M2090 GPUs. The implementation details and the performance achievements in terms of accuracy are discussed in this paper.
