We describe a new implementation of a parallel Tree-SPH code with the aim to simulate Galaxy Formation and Evolution. The code has been parallelized using SHMEM, a Cray proprietary library to handle communications between the 256 processors…
We report on resent N-body simulations of galaxy formation performed on the GRAPE-4 (GRAvity PipE) system, a special-purpose computer for astrophysical N-body simulations. We review the astrophysical motivation, the algorithm, the actual…
We present preliminary results on the parallelization of a Tree-Code for evaluating gravitational forces in N-body astrophysical systems. Our HPF/CRAFT implementation on a CRAY T3E machine attained an encouraging speed-up behavior, reaching…
Direct-summation N-body algorithms compute the gravitational interaction between stars in an exact way and have a computational complexity of O(N^2). Performance can be greatly enhanced via the use of special-purpose accelerator boards like…

We simulate the formation and chemodynamical evolution of 128 elliptical galaxies using a GRAPE-SPH code that includes various physical processes that are associated with the formation of stellar systems: radiative cooling, star formation,…
In this paper we describe the current status of the GRAPE-6 project to develop a special-purpose computer with a peak speed exceeding 100 Tflops for the simulation of astrophysical N-body problems. One of the main targets of the GRAPE-6…
In this paper, we describe the implementation and performance of GreeM, a massively parallel TreePM code for large-scale cosmological N-body simulations. GreeM uses a recursive multi-section algorithm for domain decomposition. The size of…
