dc.descriptionWe present a new scalable algorithm for short-range molecular dynamics simulations on distributed memory MIMD multicomputer based on a message-passing multi-cell approach. We have implemented the algorithm on the Connection Machine 5 (CM-5) and demonstrate that meso-scale molecular dynamics with more than $10^8$ particles is now possible on massively parallel MIMD computers. Typical runs show single particle update-times of $0.15 μs$ in 2 dimensions (2D) and approximately $1 μs$ in 3 dimensions (3D) on a 1024 node CM-5 without vector units, corresponding to more than 1.8 GFlops overall performance. We also present a scaling equation which agrees well with actually observed timings.
