Abstract  This paper firstly introduces the structure and working principle of DSP-based parallel system, parallel accelerating board and SHARC DSP chip. Then it pays attention to investigating the system’s programming characteristics, especially the mode of communication, discussing how to design parallel algorithms and presenting a domain-decomposition-based complete multi-grid parallel algorithm with virtual boundary forecast (VBF) to solve a lot of large-scale and complicated heat problems. In the end, Mandelbrot Set and a non-linear heat transfer equation of ceramic/metal composite material are taken as examples to illustrate the implementation of the proposed algorithm. The results showed that the solutions are highly efficient and have linear speedup.
