Animating the Heat Equation: A Case Study in Optimization
Volume 1, Issue 1
Summer 1990
John M. Sullivan, Princeton University
Matthew M. Thomas, McDonnell Aircraft Company
While producing a color animation of a solution to the heat equation
using Mathematica, we discover many ways to optimize Mathematica
code, resulting in a program that runs hundreds of times faster than the
original version.
