Unfortunately, they provide no easy way to handle loops that perform indirect\u00a0 memory accesses, which are common ground when dealing with unstructured meshes. The LP2 allows for parallelization of such loops with the help of dynamic scheduling and space filling curves.If I have enough time, I will also discuss HEXOTIC,\u00a0 an automated hexahedral mesh generator combining octree,\u00a0 dual-mesh\u00a0 and buffer-layers. Even though many methods have been\u00a0 suggested to meet\u00a0 the challenge of all-hexahedral meshing, octree-based\u00a0 methods remain the most efficient from an\u00a0 engineering point of view. As\u00a0 of today, its speed and robustness are still\u00a0 unmatched. This paper\u00a0 presents advances made in the Hexotic project, especially\u00a0 in terms of\u00a0 automation, sharp angles meshing\u00a0 and adaptation.\u0022\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp class=\u0022MsoPlainText\u0022\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp class=\u0022MsoPlainText\u0022\u003EBio:\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp class=\u0022MsoPlainText\u0022\u003E\u0022I have been working on automated mesh generation for twelve years in the Gamma team at INRIA \/ FRANCE.
