About this tutorial

Scientific model - The Shallow Water Equations

Numerical code

Examples

Example 1 - shallow.f - Basic serial code.

Example 2 - shallow2.f - Code modernized to Fortran 90 standard. Serial.

Example 3 - shallow3.f - Code with portable timing instrumentation added. Serial.

Example 4 - shallow4.f - Code with netCDF I/O added to facilitate data portability and later visualization. Serial.

Example 5 - shallow5.f - Code parallelized using OpenMP threading library. Shared memory parallelization.

Example 6 - shallow6.F - Code further parallelized using MPI message passing library. Hybrid (shared memory/distributed memory) parallelization.

Example 7 - shallow7.F - Advanced hybrid example
