  abstract= "The nature of panel methods makes parallelisation difficult,
     unless effective methods can be found that minimise the
     number of messages required to calculate the interaction of
     all panels in the problem domain. Here, we use a minimal
     path configuration of processors to give an effective
     solution and show its performance superiority over a
     solution obtained from a ring configuration of processors. A
     detailed description of the numerical model and the
     numerical methods that are used for a typical panel method
     problem is given.The importance of balancing the message
     generating parts of an algorithm are established by
     examining the influence matrix set-up time and the matrix
     solution time. The scalability and maximum performance
     characteristics of the algorithm and system configuration
     are analysed and reported."
