Abstract
This paper describes an implementation of an adaptive finite element progra m for coupled fluid-structure problems using a network of workstations. A p ool of task programming paradigm suitable for a heterogeneous distributed w orkstation environment is presented. The issues of load balancing and fault recovery are explored. Numerical results for this distributed programming paradigm are presented and compared with sequential and parallel programmin g models.
