A restructuring method for implementing numerical algorithms for scientific computing can help them run efficiently on the IBM Cell processor and other multicore CPUs. Using the PPM gas dynamics algorithm as an example, this work walks through code transformation techniques step by step that can boost performance of scientific simulation codes.
