Abstract
We discuss the simulation of granular materials and theproblems encountered when parallelizing these simulations.The main problem of inadequately balanced loads can bemitigated via the use of a dynamic load balancing procedure.We discuss a mapping of this procedure onto a deterministiccellular automaton and show that the time needed forconvergence from an initially unbalanced state grows like? / Pff, with P being the number of processors andff = 0:089 \Sigma 0:009.
