June 30, 2000. TEMPEST version Alfred Wong and Tom Pistor Electronics Research Laboratory University of California, Berkeley Introduction Overview The acronym TEMPEST3 stands for Time-domain Electromagnetic Massively Parallel Evaluation of Scattering from Topography. The computer program solves Maxwell's equations using a time-domain finite-difference algorithm, where the electric and magnetic field nodes are spatially and temporally staggered over a three-dimensional topography of interest. version takes advantage of the inherent parallel nature of electromagnetic wave propagation and is implemented on the computer architecture connection machine 5 (CM- 5)8. Due to the limited availability of the CM-5, version is implemented on any single-processor computer architecture such as a work station or even a personal computer. version was also intended for single processor architectures but offered several improved features.
