Abstract

This paper shows how to use cloud computing to solve N-body problem. It presents an idea and implementation of cloud service based on Windows Azure Platform. Clients can access cloud service via Internet over HTTP protocol. They create computation tasks supplying simulation parameters such as number of steps, time step and XML file with body definitions (initial position, mass and velocity). Presented solution uses Barnes-Hut Algorithm (based on adaptive oct tree) to reduce computation complexity form N ×N to N logN. All body interactions are computed in parallel, on worker nodes in cloud.
