Some help for Red black SOR with OpenMP
 

Hi everybody, I'm trying to parallelize ( with OpenMP ) a Numerical recipes routine. In fact, this is a Red black SOR algorithm.

But I don't know how to begin...

If somone could help me for this first experience...

PS: You can find the algorithm below

**************************************************

ph():represent the 3D quantity to solve

res(): is the source term

omeg : is the relaxation parameter

************************************************** *

kjsw=1 do ipass=1,2 isw=kjsw

do 14 k=2,n3x

do 14 j=2,n2y

do 13 i=isw+1,n1z,2

fj=(-(ph(i+1,j,k)+ph(i-1,j,k)

+ph(i,j-1,k)+ph(i,j+1,k)

+ph(i,j,k+1)+ph(i,j,k-1))+res(i,j,k))

ph(i,j,k)=omeg*(fj/6)+(1.d0-omeg)*ph(i,j,k)

13 continue

isw=3-isw

14 continue

kjsw=3-kjsw

15 continue

Parallelize the inner loop (there are no data dependencies as far as I can tell). The speed-up you will get will depend upon the size of the maximum index in the loop.

I forget the exact syntax but something like:

!$OMP PARALLEL DO (PRIVATE i,fj) . . . !$OMP END PARALLEL DO

should be about right.
