Abstract
Dynamically adaptive techniques for the solution of partial differential equations that employ locally optimal approximations can yield highly advantageous ratios for cost/accuracy. Distributed implementations of these methods offer the potential for accurate solutions of physically realistic models of important physical systems. These implementations however, lead to interesting challenges in dynamic data-distribution, re-distribution and load balancing. This paper presents an applicationcentric performance characterization and evaluation of dynamic partitioning and load-balancing techniques for distributed adaptive grid hierarchies that underlie adaptive mesh-refinement algorithms (AMR). The overall goal of this characterization is to enable the selection of the most appropriate mechanism based on application and system parameters. Keywords: Dynamic load balancing; Performance characterization; Adaptive mesh refinement. 1.
