Parallel Technqiues for Seismic Computations

Finding oil includes seismic processing of data obtained
from experiemnts done in the field. The compujtations are
generally very compute intensive and hence lends themselves
to parallel computing, since often large datasets spanning
storages on several compute nodes is involved.

In this thesis. a seismic application is considered and 
fast both serial and parallel algorithms studied and compared
This includes evaluating how to best divide the data between 
different nodes for a given application.
