This model is referred to as \"Model S\", and consists of the usual Kawasaki spin-exchange kinetics (\"Model B\") in conjunction with a kinetic constraint. We use novel multi-spin coding techniques to develop fast algorithms for Monte Carlo simulations of Models B and S. We use these algorithms to study the late stages of pattern dynamics in these systems.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2005-01-10T11:42:57.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "monte carlo study", "surface diffusion", "study phase separation driven", "usual kawasaki spin-exchange kinetics", "monte carlo simulations" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 25, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
