Parallelization of reverse time migration using MPI OpenMP
Increasing computational power ensures effective implementation of high end HPC applications but does not guarantee performance. Seismic modelling is one such high computational demanding application. In oil and gas industries, reverse time migration is one of the important migration algorithms that guarantees accurate imaging results but its practical implementation gets hindered due to its high computational cost. In this paper we will discuss reverse time migration for solving 2D wave equations using finite difference method and its parallel implementation using Message Passing Interface(MPI) and OpenMP.
