Narrow band algorithm is applied to localize the solving of level-set PDE on global domain to a tube around interface. Due to the unknown evolving interface, narrow band algorithm brings load balance problem for parallelizing computing. This work presents a tool for evenly distributing work loads on CPUs. On the other hand, numerically solving level-set PDE only needs simple operations but on large grid points. This work also presents a GPU acceleration for solving level-set PDE using finite difference method.","url_abs":"http://arxiv.org/abs/1612.04040v1","url_pdf":"http://arxiv.org/pdf/1612.04040v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"parallel-level-set-algorithm-with-mpi-and","repo_url":"https://github.com/wzhenlin/parallel-levelSet","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
