Abstract
The techniques described in this paper can be treated efficiently with parallel computers and can be applied to any problem that requires the treatment of every pair of objects in a molecule or in a unit cell. We have found that the applications of these algorithms to problems involving short- and long-range forces is extremely efficient. This is quite surprising, since the calculations are very communication-intensive. The communication topology is extremely simple. Communications take place concurrently around a ring of processors.
