Abstract
Grids provide an incredible amount of resources spread geographically to scientists and researchers, but the poor performance of the interconnection network is often a limiting factor for most parallel applications based on partial differential equations where intensive communications are required. Furthermore, the evolution towards multicore architecture has further exacerbated the problem and a strong endeavor is emerging from the scientific community to effectively exploit parallelism at an unprecedented scale. Indeed, standard softwares and algorithms need to be rethought and redesigned to be able to benefit from the power that new generations of multicore processors offer (hundreds of thousands of nodes).
