Extended version of a paper presented at the High Performance Computing and Networking Europe conference (HPCN, Vienna, Austria, April 1997)
The objective of the European project STORMS (Software Tools for the Optimization of Resources in Mobile Systems) is to develop a software tool to be used for the design and the planning of the future Universal Mobile Telecommunication System (UMTS). In this context the ParFlow method permits the simulation of outdoor radio wave propagation in urban environment, modeling the physical system in terms of the motion of fictitious microscopic particles over a lattice. This paper gives an overview of the ParFlow method and reports the design, the implementation, and the performance analysis of ParFlow++, an object-oriented irregular parallel software urban outdoor radio wave propagation prediction.
