Abstract
N-body simulation is the process of modeling the behavior of a system of particles with long-distance interactions between them. Different variants of such simulation are used in astronomy and molecular dynamics, where particles interact by means of gravitational and molecular forces, respectively. N-body simulation has a very large computational complexity, because O(N
