Finally, the next version of POST3D, named "POST II," may be available to examination by
summer. The major change between the two versions is namelist and the data structures within
the program. The parallel algorithm implemented in POST I should readily be instrumented in
POST II. Additionally, POST II has been extended to support multiple launch vehicles. It is
believed that "coarse grain" parallelism could be applied, with the division of work segmented
at the vehicle level. It may be possible to combine the fine grain parallelism of POST I with the
coarse grain parallelism of POST II for even better performance.
