Our parallelization gives good speed-ups on current multi-processor workstations. These speed-ups close the gap that existed towards real time animation for several 3D-examples. In addition to parallelizing the solver software the integration of a fast 3D-volume renderer into the parallel framework has been an important step to achieve this goal. Our parallelization is portable on workstations and PC s running under the UNIX or the WIN32 operating systems.enParallel Algorithmsdistributed algorithmsperformance evaluationperformance measurementfluid simulationvolume rendering006conference paper
