Fast Multipole Method

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Fast Multipole Method (FMM) is a computational electromagnetic technique that may be applied instead of techniques like the Method of Moments (MoM) or Ewald Summation. It is an accurate simulation technique and is computationally more efficient than the MoM. Both memory and processor runtime requirements are greatly reduced over the MoM. The FMM was first introduced by Greengard and Rokhlin [1].
