Abstract
In this paper we present methods for parallelization of 3D CFD forest fire modelling code on Non-uniform memory computers in frame of the OpenMP environment. Mathematical model is presented first. Then, some peculiarities of this class of computers are considered, along with properties and limitations of the OpenMP model. Techniques for efficient parallelization are discussed, considering different types of data processing algorithms. Finally, performance results for the parallelized algorithm are presented and analyzed (for up to 16 processors).
