We present an efficient Finite Volume solver for the shallow water equations using an actor extension of the X10 programming language, ActorX10, as programming model. Each actor is assigned to a Cartesian patch of the computational grid. Using the actor's finite state machine to control patch updates, we realize lazy activation of patches, only when a propagating wave enters the respective patch....
