Abstract

In this work various ways to accelerate the computation process in the SEEKID/ SEE-GRID software for the biomechanical simulation of the human eye are investigated. Both sequential and parallel strategies are discussed. To improve the sequential optimizer, the Broyden update method is utilized. A strategy to interpolate function values is first found on the basis of the Delaunay algorithm. An enhanced strategy was developed based on the special regularity of the mesh used in the interpolation program. The strategies were implemented and the results of the benchmarks are presented together with the source code.
