This seminar was presented November 25 & 26, Nov 2013

This seminar will demonstrate how to improve the performance of parameter studies being run on high performance computers using load balancing techniques. It will be highly useful to any research group intending to do large parameter sweeps.

The following topics will be discussed:

• Introduction to Dynamic Load Balancing
• Typical OpenSeesMP application script
• Modification for Dynamic Load Balancing
• Summary and conclusions
