Abstract
A method for creating a load balanced spatial partitioning of a structured, diffusing system of particles with pairwise interactions includes steps of: assigning a weight corresponding to a computational cost for a pair interaction of particles to a simulation space distance between the particles; performing a spatial partitioning of the simulation space; and assigning computation of pair interaction to any node that has the positions of both particles.
