==Parallel mesh generation software==

While many solvers have been ported to parallel machines, grid generators have left behind. Still the preprocessing step of mesh generation remains a sequential bottleneck in the simulation cycle. That is why the need for developing of stable 3D parallel grid generator is well-justified. Work in this direction is carried out by several institutions <ref>Fraunhofer Institute for Industrial Mathematics, http://www.itwm.fhg.de</ref>.
