Abstract
This paper presents the parallelization of FARM, a 3D Eulerian chemical-transport model on structured and nested grids. The parallelization has been developed using the MPI library and OpenMP directives implementing a Master-Worker strategy. Benchmarking in different architectures is also discussed.
