  • Abstract

The fast sweeping method is an efficient iterative method for hyperbolic problems. It combines Gauss-Seidel iterations with alternating sweeping orderings. In this paper several parallel implementations of the fast sweeping method are presented. These parallel algorithms are simple and efficient due to the causality of the underlying partial different equations. Numerical examples are used to verify our algorithms.
