Abstract
The paper presents experience obtained with the parallelisation of two large applications, one from the petroleum industry — oil reservoir simulation, and one from environmental management — a three dimensional hydrodynamic code for coastal waters including a eutrophication module.
We give a brief presentation of the two applications and a description of the parallelisation strategies. Performance tests are reported.
