    Abstract

    This paper discusses the scalability properties of a novel algorithm for the rapid evaluation of radial basis function interpolants. The algorithm is associated with the problem of force calculation in many-body calculations. Contrary to previously developed fast summation schemes including treecodes and fast multipole methods, this algorithm has simple communication patterns which are achieved by exploiting the localisation and smoothness properties of radial basis functions. Thus, the algorithm is scalable even in low bandwidth environments like clusters of workstations and even for relatively small problem sizes.
