We have implemented a parallel molecular dynamics algorithm, which incorporates the Stillinger-Weber interatomic potential. The code was parallelized using a ghost cell atomic division approach, ensuring scaling with the number of processors and a significant increase in speed with respect to the serial version. The methodology is validated by computing the thermal conductivity and phonon frequency spectra of bulk silicon single crystals for different domain sizes at 1000K. The predicted thermal conductivities are consistent with the experimental value at that temperature. In addition, the phonon frequency spectra capture the properties expected from the dispersion relations for silicon.
