As a matter of fact, the efficient and scalable implementation of concurrent multiscale methods on clusters and supercomputers is a complicated endeavor. In this article we present the parallel multiscale simulation tool MACI which has been designed for efficient coupling between molecular dynamics and finite element codes. We propose a specification for a thin yet versatile interface for the coupling of molecular dynamics and finite element codes in a modular fashion. Further we discuss the parallelization strategy pursued in MACI, in particular, focusing on the parallel assembly of transfer operators and their efficient execution.}, language = {en} }
