title = "SWE-X10: An actor-based and locally coordinated solver for the shallow water equations",
abstract = "We present an X10 software package for the solution of the shallow water equations, a set of equations commonly used to simulate tsunami and flooding events. The software uses an actor-oriented approach to obtain a communication scheme that does not rely on central coordination. Instead, each actor only communicates with its neighbors. We evaluated the package via scaling tests on singleplace shared memory as well as multi-place distributed memory system configurations, and found it to perform comparably to prior implementations based on C++, OpenMP and MPI.",
