Abstract
This work describes the use of dynamic load balancing in a PC cluster,applied to a multi–physics model that combines the parallel solution for three–dimensional(3D) PDEs of shallow water bodies flow and the parallel solution for the three–dimensional.PDEs of scalar transportation of substances.The dynamic load balancing is obtained via diffusion algorithms.Three approaches for dynamic load balancing were implemented and are described here.
